Abstract
Automated image registration techniques, particularly between modalities which clearly display anatomy and especially within the head, have become commonplace. Meanwhile advances in molecular imaging and the need to perform registration in other areas of body has driven the development of nonrigid and semiautomatic 3D volume fusion methods. This paper will focus on this latter class of 3D volume registration methods for a variety of clinical applications.
