Unregistered / coregistered images

The processing and analysis of images taken by multimodal methods often requires prior perfect registration of images. For example, if we want to describe a 3-D image of a laboratory mouse using the atlas, we must place the image of the mouse in question and the template image from the atlas in the same coordinate system.

If the images are unregistered, it is impossible to integrate information from different images for one voxel and it is therefore not possible, for example, to study the relationships between them.

Image registration is the process of estimating a spatial transformation that maps the points of one image to the corresponding points of another.

Image registration uses a wide range of techniques and methods. What criteria could we use to
