  • Title: Real-time SPECT and 2D ultrasound image registration.
    Author: Bucki M, Chassat F, Galdames F, Asahi T, Pizarro D, Lobo G.
    Journal: Med Image Comput Comput Assist Interv; 2007; 10(Pt 2):219-26. PubMed ID: 18044572.
    Abstract:
    In this paper we present a technique for fully automatic, real-time 3D SPECT (Single Photon Emitting Computed Tomography) and 2D ultrasound image registration. We use this technique in the context of kidney lesion diagnosis. Our registration algorithm allows a physician to perform an ultrasound exam after a SPECT image has been acquired and see in real time the registration of both modalities. An automatic segmentation algorithm has been implemented in order to display in 3D the positions of the acquired US images with respect to the organs.
