    Author: Xu ZH, Liao FX, He ZQ, Ni Q.
    Journal: Nan Fang Yi Ke Da Xue Xue Bao; 2010 Jun; 30(6):1304-6. PubMed ID: 20584663.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To develop a new method of PET and CT cross-modality medical image fusion based on out-location frame. METHODS: PET/CT cross-modality medical images were obtained based on the out-location frame and the external fiducial marker on the frame was used for rigid medical image registration. A variation model based on the wavelet transform was used for image fusion. RESULTS: The CT images were displayed by grey scale and overlaid with the PET images displayed by chromatic scale to obtain the image after registration and fusion. CONCLUSION: The method of external markers registration can be effective and accurate in achieving PET and CT image fusion.
