A classifying registration technique for the estimation of enhancement curves of DCE-CT scan sequences
2010
Medical Image Analysis
The technique is applied to DET-CT scan sequences and evaluated using ground truth data. ...
Due to this tree approach, the number of classes is set automatically and the whole technique is entirely unsupervised. ...
Such an approach requires a preliminary segmentation of images. But, in our DET-CT problem, it is difficult to obtain such a segmentation before image registration. ...
