Nonrigid registration of myocardial perfusion MRI

This paper describes a fully automatic registration of 10 multi-slice myocardial perfusion magnetic resonance image sequences. The registration of these sequences is crucial for the clinical interpretation, which currently is subjected to manual labour. The approach used in this study is a nonrigid registration algorithm based on free-form deformations due to Rueckert et al. Inspection of difference images from the wash-out part of the perfusion sequences indicates that a good registration accuracy is obtained.
