Abstract

In this paper, we describe the application of an established block-matching based registration method to the CuRIOUS 2019 MICCAI registration challenge. Directional and symmetric approaches with different parameters are evaluated to select the most suitable setting of this fully automatic and general registration method. The results can be used as a baseline, for example when evaluating methods specialised in ultrasound (US) to MRI registration or registration of different interventional US (iUS) data. This work is a continuation of our contribution to the CuRIOUS 2018 challenge. We provide a more extensive analysis of main parameters as well as add pre- to post-resection iUS registration to the previous MRI-iUS registration. The proposed approach achieves an average target registration error of 2.68 mm and 1.92 mm for the MR-iUS and the iUS-iUS task respectively.
