Abstract

We describe the evaluation of a non-rigid image registration method for multi-modal data. The evaluation is made difficult by the absence of gold standard test data, for which the true transformation from one image to another is known. Different approaches have been used to deal with this deficiency, e.g., by using synthetically warped data, by comparison of anatomic regions of interest identified either manually or automatically, and by direct comparison of the registered data. Each of these approaches are limited and in this paper, we illustrate some of the problems that arise based on their application to the evaluation of our multi-modal non-rigid registration method.
