Abstract

Deep learning-based methods have recently demonstrated remarkable results in deformable image registration for a wide range of medical image analysis tasks. However, most of the deep learning-based approaches are often limited to small deformation settings. In this paper, we describe a deformable image registration approach for the Learn2Reg 2020 challenge based on the Laplacian pyramid image registration networks. Our approach won 1st place in the Learn2Reg 2020 challenge.
