Hubless 3D medical image bundle registration

Abstract

We propose a hubless medical image registration scheme, able to conjointly register massive amounts of images. Exploiting 3D points of interest combined with global optimization, our algorithm allows partial matches, does not need any prior information (full body image as a central patient model) and exhibits very good robustness by exploiting inter-volume relationships. We show the efficiency of our approach with the rigid registration of 400 CT volumes, and we provide an eye-detection application as a first step to patient image anonymization.
