Semi-Automatic Anatomical Tree Matching for Landmark-Based Elastic Registration of Liver Volumes

One promising approach to register liver volume acquisitions is based on the branching points of the vessel trees as anatomical landmarks inherently available in the liver. Automated tree matching algorithms were proposed to automatically find pair-wise correspondences between two vessel trees. Howe...
