CLAIRE-ROP

CLAIRE-ROP

Deformable Image Registration (DIR) is a complex process that involves calculating a deformation field to map one image onto another. This field describes the spatial transformation between the two images using mathematical algorithms. Due to its complexity, DIR requires substantial computational resources and time, posing challenges for time-sensitive medical applications like image-guided radiation therapy.

Our method addresses this challenge by significantly reducing processing time without sacrificing registration accuracy. We achieve this by partitioning lung images into multiple partitions, enabling separate registration for each partition. These partitions are efficiently distributed across dedicated GPUs, eliminating communication overhead and enhancing scalability. This partition-based approach is scalable, allowing us to adapt seamlessly to an increased number of available GPUs.

Registration framework:

Dataset:

Required tools:

Instructions:

  1. Install CLAIRE and the required tools.
  2. Define the number of available GPUs and your dataset category (S or L) in Partitioning.sh and run the script.

Getting optimal results:

Run the small dataset with 4 GPUs and the large dataset with 8 GPUs to get the fastest runtime while preserving accuracy.
