Abstract
The objective of this work is to examine the feasibility of a method to register dynamic contrast enhanced computed X-ray tomography (DCE-CT) and dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) datasets in order to make possible the comparison of parametric maps generated from tracer kinetic modeling. First, the CT and MR dynamic sets were matched temporally using a cross-correlation maximization approach. The registration was then performed through an affine transformation followed by a non-linear registration using free-form deformations (FFDs) based on B-splines. This was determined from the CT-MR pair that maximized Normalized Mutual Information (NMI). Then the 'extended Kety' model was fitted to both CT and MR and Ktrans, Ve and vp parameters were obtained. The method was applied to 5 patients with bladder tumors. After registration, the overlap matching between CT and MR volume of interest (VOI) was on average 91%.
