Abstract

CT image registration technique is important in the medical image processing which also can be seen as signal processing. But the process of biological mechanics model of energy function is a tedious calculation and longer time-consuming, which cannot meet the requirements of clinical application. In order to solve this problem, through the level set method, this paper solves biological mechanics model of numerical solution of energy function, and the process of CUDA acceleration, so as to improve execution efficiency of medical image registration algorithm based on biological mechanics model and make it meet the clinical application of the real-time requirement. Experiments show that the method can be accurate and fast to abdominal CT image registration, and it also can satisfy the real-time requirement of the image registration clinically.
