Deformable Image Registration with Inclusion of Autodetected Homologous Tissue Features

A novel deformable registration algorithm is proposed in the application of radiation therapy. The algorithm starts with autodetection of a number of points with distinct tissue features. The feature points are then matched by using the scale invariance features transform (SIFT) method. The associat...
