Registration of a series of 2d images
mia-2dgroundtruthreg -i <in-file> -o <out-file> -A <alpha> -B <beta> -R <rho_thresh> [options]
mia-2dgroundtruthreg This program implements the non-linear registration based on Pseudo Ground Thruth for motion compensation of series of myocardial perfusion images as decribed in Chao Li and Ying Sun, 'Nonrigid Registration of Myocardial Perfusion MRI Using Pseudo Ground Truth' , In Proc. Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention MICCAI 2009, 165-172, 2009. Note that for this nonlinear motion correction a preceding linear registration step is usually required.
