Registering Datasets

Dataset registration is often used as a preliminary step in multi-modality image processing and analysis applications. For example, you can align medical images captured with different diagnostic modalities such as MRI and SPECT to compare common features in different images.

Registration may be necessary if fused datasets have to be aligned so that corresponding image content coincides spatially. Automatic registration, as well as manual adjustments, are available to rotate or translate a dataset.
