A temporal subtraction technique that is subtracted from previous image to current one is introduced as powerful tools in medical fields to diagnose abnormalities and temporal changes. It provided a computer aided diagnosis (CAD) tools on visual screening. Radiologist can easily detect lesions on image by compare the two images. It is because the subtraction image can enhance the temporal changes, such as shaped of new lesions and/or the temporal changes in existing abnormalities by removing most of the normal background structures by subtraction of a previous image from a current one. To make a temporal subtraction image, image registration is required as essential procedure. But, subtraction artifacts are still remained which are caused by mis-registration. In this paper, we propose a new non-rigid image registration method for temporal subtraction technique on thoracic MDCT images using non-rigid warping technique based on the feature-driven free form deformation. |
