Multimodal image registration (MIR) is a fundamental procedure in many image-guided therapies. Recently, unsupervised learning-based methods have demonstrated promising performance over accuracy and efficiency in deformable image registration. However, the estimated deformation fields of the existing methods fully rely on the to-be-registered image pair. It is difficult for the networks to be aware of the mismatched boundaries, resulting in unsatisfactory organ boundary alignment. In this paper, we propose a novel multimodal registration framework, which leverages the deformation fields estimated from both: (i) the original to-be-registered image pair, (ii) their corresponding gradient intensity maps, and adaptively fuses them with the proposed gated fusion module. With the help of auxiliary gradient-space guidance, the network can concentrate more on the spatial relationship of the organ boundary. Experimental results on two clinically acquired CT-MRI datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed approach.
We introduce a learning strategy for contrast-invariant image registration without requiring imaging data. While classical registration methods accurately estimate the spatial correspondence between images, they solve a costly optimization problem fo
Understanding images without explicit supervision has become an important problem in computer vision. In this paper, we address image captioning by generating language descriptions of scenes without learning from annotated pairs of images and their c
One of the fundamental challenges in supervised learning for multimodal image registration is the lack of ground-truth for voxel-level spatial correspondence. This work describes a method to infer voxel-level transformation from higher-level correspo
The loss function of an unsupervised multimodal image registration framework has two terms, i.e., a metric for similarity measure and regularization. In the deep learning era, researchers proposed many approaches to automatically learn the similarity
Recent successes in deep learning based deformable image registration (DIR) methods have demonstrated that complex deformation can be learnt directly from data while reducing computation time when compared to traditional methods. However, the relianc
