Abstract

Image registration is used in many fields for mapping one image to another. In magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) applications, one of the main uses isfor correction of motion-induced artifacts so that subsequent image analysiswould be more reliable. This paper gives an introduction to some image registration problems in MRI and functional MRI applications, describes certain commonly used image registration procedures, and discusses their major features. Two potential research topics for improving current image registration procedures are also discussed.
