ABSTRACT:: We have applied techniques from differential motion
estimation to the problem of automatic elastic registration of medical
images. This method models the mapping between images as a locally
affine but globally smooth warp. The mapping also explicitly accounts
for variations in image intensities. This approach is simple and
highly effective across a broad range of medical images. We show the
efficacy of this approach on several synthetic and clinical images.
