Abstract
Almost all computer vision applications, from remote sensing and cartography to medical imaging and biometrics, use image registration or alignment techniques that establish spatial correspondence (one-to-one mapping) between two or more images. These images depict either one planar (2-D) or volumetric (3-D) scene or several such scenes and can be taken at different times, from various viewpoints, and/or by multiple sensors. In medical image processing and analysis, the image registration is instrumental for clinical diagnosis and therapy planning, e.g., to follow disease progression and/or response to treatment, or integrate information from different sources/modalities to form more detailed descriptions of anatomical objects-of-interest. The unified registration goal – aligning a 2-D or 3-D target (sensed) image with a reference image – is reached by specifying a mathematical model of image transformations for and determining model parameters of the desired alignment. Frequently, the parameters provide an optimum of a goal function supported by the parameter space, so that the registration reduces to a certain optimization problem. This chapter overviews the 2-D and the 3-D medical image registration with special reference to the state-of-the-art robust techniques proposed for the last decade and discusses their advantages, drawbacks, and practical implementations.

For example, a quadratic 2-D mapping of target points \( (x,y) \)to reference points \( (x^\prime,y^\prime) \): \( x^\prime = {a_{00}} + {a_{10}}x + {a_{01}}y + {a_{20}}{x^2} + {a_{02}}{y^2} + {a_{03}}xy \); \( y^\prime = {b_{00}} + {b_{10}}x + {b_{01}}y + {b_{20}}{x^2} + {b_{02}}{y^2} + {b_{03}}xy \); with 12 parameters \( {a_{ij}},{b_{ij}} \), to be estimated (e.g., from the six exact correspondences of the points).
