    Abstract: Disclosed are a method and apparatus for registering images having different modalities. The medical image registration method includes performing, at an initial register, multi-modality registration of a reference image from a plurality of first images captured during a first breathing period and a second image; performing, at the initial register, single-modality registration of the reference image and each of the other first images; generating registration images between the plurality of first images and the second image based on the multi-modality registration and the single-modality registration; acquiring a third image captured after the first breathing period; and detecting an image corresponding to the third image from the registration images.

    Abstract: A method of medical image registration with respect to a volume of interest (VOI) and an apparatus for performing the method are provided. In one embodiment, the method includes obtaining a first medical image of a selected section of the VOI, from a first medical apparatus, detecting a sectional image corresponding to the selected section from second medical images previously captured of the VOI, based on an anatomical feature appearing in the first medical image, mapping virtual coordinate schemes of the first and second medical images to produce a mapped virtual coordinate scheme, based on the detected sectional image and the first medical image, and tracking a movement of a section of the VOI captured by the first medical apparatus in the second medical images by using a mapped virtual coordinate scheme.

    Abstract: A method, an apparatus, a computer readable recording medium, and a medical imaging system are provided for segmenting an image of an object from an image of an organ. The method includes: generating a reference model of the object by using a priori knowledge related to the object of the organ; determining whether the first image includes a first area in which a shape of the object is unidentified; and in response to determining that the first image excludes the first area, segmenting a second image of the object from the first image, and in response to determining that the first image includes the first area, estimating a progression direction of the first area from the reference model to segment the second image from the first image.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for performing registration of medical images includes mapping a virtual coordinate system used by a first medical apparatus and a virtual coordinate system used by a second medical apparatus to one another. The coordinate systems are associated with a real-time medical image captured by the first medical apparatus and a three-dimensional (3D) medical image previously captured by the second medical apparatus, respectively. The method further includes detecting a position of a probe of the first medical apparatus from a coordinate system used by the second medical apparatus, based on a result of the mapping, determining a volume image corresponding to the detected position of the probe from the previously captured 3D medical image, and extracting from the determined volume image a cross-sectional image corresponding to the real-time medical image, where the real-time medical image changes according to a patient's physical movement.
