abstract = {It was the success of software-based image registration
that eventually led to the introduction of hardware-based
concepts for image fusion, such as combined PET/CT
tomographs. A prototype PET/CT was first presented in 1998,
with various commercial designs to follow since 2000. PET/CT
is used primarily as a diagnostic modality in the field of
extra-cerebral oncology imaging. The major advantage of
combined imaging over retrospective software registration is
the nearly identical position of the patient during both
complementary examination, and therefore tomograms of
identical parts of the body can be provided in
spatially-corresponding slices.Despite the availability of
hardware combinations of complementary imaging modalities
software-based image registration, however, still inherits a
major role in subsequent data processing, in particular when
individual imaging modalities other than combined PET/CT are
being used during patient workup. Furthermore, software is
likely to become an important tool for the correction of
residual motion-induced mis-registration within combined
PET/CT data sets, and for follow-up studies involving, for
example, CT, PET, and PET/CT. Therefore, flexible algorithms
that utilize non-linear interpolation schemes implemented on
fast computer systems are needed, and will continue to
contribute to successful image registration and fusion in
clinical practice.},
