Résumé

Automatic registration between abdominal ultrasound (US) and computed tomography (CT) images is needed to enhance interventional guidance of renal procedures, but it remains an open research challenge. We propose a novel method that doesn't require an initial registration estimate (a global method) and also handles registration ambiguity caused by the organ's natural symmetry. Combined with a registration refinement algorithm, this method achieves robust and accurate kidney registration while avoiding manual initialization.
