Abstract

Image registration very often used to be a tedious task which had to be performed manually. According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a non-rigid image registration by an iterative refinement process based on a combination of landmarks with similarity values is proposed. Advantageously, a very fast and robust method maybe provided.
