Query: Mesh-to-raster based non-rigid registration of multi-modal images   Region of interest (ROI) alignment in medical images plays a crucial role in
diagnostics, procedure planning, treatment, and follow-up. Frequently, a model
is represented as triangulated mesh while the patient data is provided from CAT
scanners as pixel or voxel data. Previously, we presented a 2D method for
curve-to-pixel registration. This paper contributes (i) a general
mesh-to-raster (M2R) framework to register ROIs in multi-modal images; (ii) a
3D surface-to-voxel application, and (iii) a comprehensive quantitative
evaluation in 2D using ground truth provided by the simultaneous truth and
performance level estimation (STAPLE) method. The registration is formulated as
a minimization problem where the objective consists of a data term, which
involves the signed distance function of the ROI from the reference image, and
a higher order elastic regularizer for the deformation. The evaluation is based
on quantitative light-induced fluoroscopy (QLF) and digital photography (DP) of
decalcified teeth. STAPLE is computed on 150 image pairs from 32 subjects, each
showing one corresponding tooth in both modalities. The ROI in each image is
manually marked by three experts (900 curves in total). In the QLF-DP setting,
our approach significantly outperforms the mutual information-based
registration algorithm implemented with the Insight Segmentation and
Registration Toolkit (ITK) and Elastix.
