Abstrakt: Traditional intensity-based 2D/3D registration requires near-perfect initialization in order for image similarity metrics to yield meaningful updates of X-ray pose and reduce the likelihood of getting trapped in a local minimum. The conventional approaches strongly depend on image appearance rather than content, and therefore, fail in revealing large pose offsets that substantially alter the appearance of the same structure. We complement traditional similarity metrics with a convolutional neural network-based (CNN-based) registration solution that captures large-range pose relations by extracting both local and contextual information, yielding meaningful X-ray pose updates without the need for accurate initialization. To register a 2D X-ray image and a 3D CT scan, our CNN accepts a target X-ray image and a digitally reconstructed radiograph at the current pose estimate as input and iteratively outputs pose updates in the direction of the pose gradient on the Riemannian Manifold. Our approach integrates seamlessly with conventional image-based registration frameworks, where long-range relations are captured primarily by our CNN-based method while short-range offsets are recovered accurately with an image similarity-based method. On both synthetic and real X-ray images of the human pelvis, we demonstrate that the proposed method can successfully recover large rotational and translational offsets, irrespective of initialization.
