Abstract

The paper discusses rigid registration of a 3D volume to 2D projections based on Mutual-Information similarity measures. The experiments we conducted are similar to those of Zoellei. However, in order to obtain a stopping criterion we use the Resilient Backpropagation as optimizer. Performing the registration on artificial images we obtain a speedup of approx. a factor of 10. We applied the matching approach to calibrate C-arm positions and found lateral movements of the detector of 0.5-1 mm in a given set of projections.
