Welcome to plastimatchΒΆ

Plastimatch is an open source software for deformable image registration. It is designed for high-performance volumetric registration of medical images, such as X-ray computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and positron emission tomography (PET). Software features include:

  • B-spline method for deformable image registration (GPU and multicore accelerated)
  • Demons method for deformable image registration (GPU accelerated)
  • ITK-based algorithms for translation, rigid, affine, demons, and B-spline registration
  • Pipelined, multi-stage registration framework with seamless conversion between most algorithms and transform types
  • Landmark-based deformable registration using thin-plate splines for global registration
  • Landmark-based deformable registration using radial basis functions for local corrections
  • Broad support for 3D image file formats (using ITK), including DICOM, Nifti, NRRD, MetaImage, and Analyze
  • DICOM and DICOM-RT import and export
  • XiO import and export
  • Plugin to 3D Slicer

Plastimatch also features two handy utilities which are not directly related to image registration:

  • FDK cone-beam CT reconstruction (GPU and multicore accelerated)
  • Digitally reconstructed radiograph (DRR) generation (GPU and multicore accelerated)

Plastimatch lacks the following:

  • Landmark-based rigid registration
  • Viscous fluid registration
  • FEM registration
  • Surface matching registration
  • Non-volumetric registration (e.g. 2D-2D or 2D-3D)
