The study of follow-up liver computed tomography (CT) images is required for the early diagnosis and treatment evaluation of liver cancer. Although this requirement has been manually performed by doctors, the demands on computer-aided diagnosis are dramatically growing according to the increased amount of medical image data by the recent development of CT. However, conventional image segmentation, registration, and skeletonization methods cannot be directly applied to clinical data due to the characteristics of liver CT images varying largely by patients and contrast agents. In this paper, we propose non-rigid liver segmentation using elastic method with global and local deformation for follow-up liver CT images. To manage intensity differences between two scans, we extract the liver vessel and parenchyma in each scan. And our method binarizes the segmented liver parenchyma and vessel, and performs the registration to minimize the intensity difference between these binarized images of follow-up CT images. The global movements between follow-up CT images are corrected by rigid registration based on liver surface. The local deformations between follow-up CT images are modeled by non-rigid registration, which aligns images using non-rigid transformation, based on locally deformable model. Our method can model the global and local deformation between follow-up liver CT scans by considering the deformation of both the liver surface and vessel. In experimental results using twenty clinical datasets, our method matches the liver effectively between follow-up portal phase CT images, enabling the accurate assessment of the volume change of the liver cancer. The proposed registration method can be applied to the follow-up study of various organ diseases, including cardiovascular diseases and lung cancer.
