MARKER LOCALIZATION USING INTENSITY-BASED REGISTRATION OF IMAGING MODALITIES

摘要

Provided are methods and systems for registering image data from two imaging modalities, to produce an image having features from both imaging technologies. In particular, the methods and systems relate to intensity-based registration of the image data. The imaging modalities may be, for example, ultrasound and x-ray, magnetic resonance imaging, or a pre--operative plan.
