Quantitative comparison and analysis of brain image registration using frequency-adaptive wavelet shrinkage.

In the field of template-based medical image analysis, image registration and normalization are frequently used to evaluate and interpret data in a standard template or reference atlas space. Despite the large number of image-registration (warping) techniques developed recently in the literature, on...
