Research of Medical Image Non-Rigid Registration Based on TPS-SEMISURF Algorithm

Aiming at avoiding misregistration in complicated medical image registration based on SURF (Speed-Up Robust Features)-TPS (Thin-Plate Spline), we propose a novel algorithm. This method is based on SURF and human interaction method for feature extraction. Then we improve SURF-TPS and propose an algorithm named TPS-SEMISURF which obtains the deformation field by calculating the Thin-plate spline of the feature points, and finally does the medical image non-rigid registration according to the parameters. Experimental results showed that the proposed method can register medical images effectively. It has a good robustness and owns better precision and rate than traditional algorithm.
