Validation of nonrigid image registration using finite-element methods application to breast MR images.

Presents a novel method for validation of nonrigid medical image registration. This method is based on the simulation of physically plausible, biomechanical tissue deformations using finite-element methods. Applying a range of displacements to finite-element models of different patient anatomies gen...
