Abstract

A method for synchronization of a longitudinal data set from a subject includes receiving a first ensemble registration estimate having a first reference image corresponding to a first image ensemble and receiving a second image ensemble different from the first image ensemble. The method includes determining a second reference image based on the second image ensemble and the first reference image. Further, the method includes determining a second ensemble registration estimate based on the first ensemble registration estimate, the second reference image, the first image ensemble and the second image ensemble using an optimization technique. The method further includes generating a synchronized image ensemble corresponding to the first image ensemble and the second image ensemble based on the second ensemble registration estimate. The method also includes determining a medical condition of the subject by a medical practitioner based on the synchronized image ensemble.
