An overview is presented of the medical image processing literature on mutual-information-
based registration. The aim of the survey is threefold: an introduction for those new to the …

Purpose: Neuronavigation based on preoperative imaging data is a ubiquitous tool for
image guidance in neurosurgery. However, it is rendered unreliable when brain shift …

Surgery is an essential component in the treatment of brain tumors. However, delineating
tumor from normal brain remains a major challenge. We describe the use of stimulated …

Image-guided therapy (IGT) uses imaging to improve the localization and targeting of
diseased tissue and to monitor and control treatments. During the past decade, image …
