Image registration is the process of systematically placing
separate images in a common frame of reference so that the
information they contain can be optimally integrated or compared.
This is becoming the central tool for image analysis,
understanding, and visualization in both medical and scientific
applications. Medical Image Registration provides the first
comprehensive coverage of this emerging field.

This monograph details the theory, technology, and practical
implementations in a variety of medical settings. International
experts thoroughly explain why image registration is important,
describe its applications in a nonmathematical way, and include
rigorous analysis for those who plan to implement algorithms
themselves. It is accessible and informative to those new to the
field, yet it provides in-depth treatment for the expert. With its
practical examples, extensive illustrations, and comprehensible
approach, Medical Image Registration is a must have guide for
medical physicists, clinicians, and researchers.
