The image registration is a very important task in image processing. In the field of medical imaging, it is used to compare the anatomical structures of two or more images taken at different time to track for example the evolution of a disease. Intensity-based techniques are widely used in the multi-modal registration. To have the best registration, a cost function expressing the similarity between these images is maximized. The registration problem is reduced to the optimization of a cost function. We propose to use neighborhood meta-heuristics (tabu search, simulated annealing) and a meta-heuristic population (genetic algorithms). An evaluation step is necessary to estimate the quality of registration obtained. In this paper we present some results of medical image registration

BACKGROUND Background: At present, the incidence of diabetes is on the rise. When doctors diagnose and treat patients' diseases, they often need to image patients to provide complementary information on patient anatomy and functional metabolism. OBJECTIVE Objective: The aim was to understand the morphological features of peripheral blood vessels of diabetes more accurately and explore its Risk factors for the occurrence of lesions for early diagnosis and early prevention. METHODS Methods: The paper selected subclinical diabetes patients admitted to our hospital from October 2013 to October 2018 as a research object. After performing colour Doppler ultrasonography on peripheral blood vessels, images of ultrasound images were taken. Then the paper proposes a multi-mode medical image registration method based on hybrid optimization algorithm for the multi-extreme problem of mutual information function. Mutual information is used as the similarity measure. The hybrid optimization algorithm is used to search for the best registration exchange parameters. The quasi-colour super images are exchanged for registration purposes. RESULTS Results: The experimental results show that the hybrid optimization algorithm can accurately analyse the colour ultrasound image of the peripheral blood vessels of subclinical diabetes, avoiding falling into the local optimal value, and the accuracy of the registration result reaches the sub-pixel level. CONCLUSIONS Conclusion: With the rapid development of imaging technology, the increasing image resolution, and the increasing amount of image data, parallel performance is high. The quasi-method has a very important significance for multi-modal medical image registration. The parameters in this algorithm can be further optimized. CLINICALTRIAL
