APPLICATION OF CT AND MRI FUSION IMAGE TECHNOLOGY IN CRANIOFACIAL REGION / 解放军医学杂志

ABSTRACT

To achieve the fusion of cranio-jaw-facial CT and MRI image,the single value decomposition-iterative closest point method based on contour feature and the multiresolution method based on wavelet pyramid were used.The results showed that the fusion was operated easily and promptly,its images were satisfactory and its reliability was good. The fusion of cranio-jaw-facial CT and MRI image was obtained. It suggested that the fusion of cranio-jaw-facial CT and MRI image was feasible in clinical practice. It can provide the image basis helping the analysis of diagnosis and treatment for diseases of the cranio-jaw-facial region with complicated anatomical formation.
