ABSTRACT
Image registration is the process of aligning images so that corresponding features can easily be related. The term is also used to mean aligning images with a computer model or aligning features in an image with locations in physical space. The images might be acquired with different sensors (e.g., sensitive to different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum) or the same sensor at different times. Image registration has applications in many fields; the one that is addressed in this book is medical imaging. This encompasses a wide range of image usage, but the main emphasis is on radiological imaging.
