    %% Registering Multimodal 3-D Medical Images
% This example shows how you can use |imregister|, |imregtform| and |imwarp|
% to automatically align two volumetric datasets: a CT image and a T1
% weighted MR image collected from the same patient at different times.
% Unlike some other techniques, |imregister| and |imregtform| do not find
% features or use control points. Intensity-based registration is often
% well-suited for medical and remotely sensed imagery.
%
% The 3-D CT and MRI datasets used in this example were provided by
% <http://www.insight-journal.org/rire/index.php Dr. Michael Fitzpatrick> 
% as part of the 
% <http://www.insight-journal.org/rire/download_data.php The Retrospective Image Registration Evaluation (RIRE) Dataset>

%% Step 1: Load Images
% This example uses two 3-D images of the same patient's head. In
% registration problems, we consider one image to be the fixed image and
% the other image to be the moving image. The goal of registration is to
% align the moving image with the fixed image. In this example, the fixed
% image is a T1 weighted MRI image. The moving image that we want to
% register is a CT image. The data is stored in the file format used by the
% Retrospective Image Registration Evaluation (RIRE) Project. Use
% |multibandread| to read the binary files that contain image data. Use the
% |helperReadHeaderRIRE| function to obtain the metadata associated with
% each image. You can use the following link to find more information about
% the RIRE file format:
% <http://www.insight-journal.org/rire/data_format.php RIRE data format>

fixedHeader  = helperReadHeaderRIRE('rirePatient007MRT1.header');
movingHeader = helperReadHeaderRIRE('rirePatient007CT.header');

fixedVolume  = multibandread('rirePatient007MRT1.bin',...
                            [fixedHeader.Rows, fixedHeader.Columns, fixedHeader.Slices],...
                            'int16=>single', 0, 'bsq', 'ieee-be' );
                        
movingVolume = multibandread('rirePatient007CT.bin',...
                            [movingHeader.Rows, movingHeader.Columns, movingHeader.Slices],...
                            'int16=>single', 0, 'bsq', 'ieee-be' );

% The |helperVolumeRegistration| function is a helper function that is provided to
% help judge the quality of 3-D registration results. You can interactively
% rotate the view and both axes will remain in sync.

helperVolumeRegistration(fixedVolume,movingVolume);

%%
% You can also use |imshowpair| to look at single planes from the fixed and
% moving volumes to get a sense of the overall alignment of the volumes. In
% the overlapping image from |imshowpair|, gray areas correspond to areas
% that have similar intensities, while magenta and green areas show places
% where one image is brighter than the other. Use |imshowpair| to observe
% the misregistration of the image volumes along an axial slice taken
% through the center of each volume.

centerFixed = size(fixedVolume)/2;
centerMoving = size(movingVolume)/2;
figure
imshowpair(movingVolume(:,:,centerMoving(3)), fixedVolume(:,:,centerFixed(3)));

%% Step 2: Set up the Initial Registration
% The |imregconfig| function makes it easy to pick the correct
% optimizer and metric configuration to use with |imregister|. These
% two images are from two different modalities, MRI and CT, so the
% 'multimodal' option is appropriate.

[optimizer,metric] = imregconfig('multimodal');

%%
% The algorithm used by |imregister| will converge to better results more
% quickly when spatial referencing information about the resolution and/or
% location of the input imagery is specified. In this case, the resolution
% of the CT and MRI datasets is defined in the image metadata. Use this
% metadata to construct |imref3d| spatial referencing objects that we will
% pass as input arguments for registration.

Rfixed  = imref3d(size(fixedVolume),fixedHeader.PixelSize(2),fixedHeader.PixelSize(1),fixedHeader.SliceThickness);
Rmoving = imref3d(size(movingVolume),movingHeader.PixelSize(2),movingHeader.PixelSize(1),movingHeader.SliceThickness); 

%%
% The properties of the spatial referencing objects define where the
% associated image volumes are in the world coordinate system and what the
% pixel extent in each dimension is. The XWorldLimits property of Rmoving
% defines the position of the moving volume in the X dimension. The
% PixelExtentInWorld property defines the size of each pixel in world units
% in the X dimension (along columns). The moving volume extends from 0.3269
% to 334.97 in the world X coordinate system and each pixel has an extent
% of 0.6536mm. Units are in millimeters because the header information used
% to construct the spatial referencing was in millimeters. The
% ImageExtentInWorldX property determines the full extent in world units of
% the moving image volume in world units.

Rmoving.XWorldLimits
Rmoving.PixelExtentInWorldX
Rmoving.ImageExtentInWorldX

%%
% The misalignment between the two volumes includes translation, scaling,
% and rotation. Use a similarity transformation to register the
% images.
%
% Start by using |imregister| to obtain a registered output image volume
% that you can view and observe directly to access the quality of
% registration results.
%
% Specify a non-default setting for the InitialRadius property of the
% optimizer to achieve better convergence in registration results.

optimizer.InitialRadius = 0.004;
movingRegisteredVolume = imregister(movingVolume,Rmoving, fixedVolume,Rfixed, 'rigid', optimizer, metric);

%%
% Use |imshowpair| again and repeat the process of examining the alignment
% of an axial slice taken through the center of the registered volumes to get a sense
% of how successful the registration is.

figure
imshowpair(movingRegisteredVolume(:,:,centerFixed(3)), fixedVolume(:,:,centerFixed(3)));
title('Axial slice of registered volume.')

%%
% From the axial slice above, it looks like the registration was
% successsful. Use |helperVolumeRegistration| again to view registered volume to
% continue judging success of registration.

helperVolumeRegistration(fixedVolume,movingRegisteredVolume);

%% Step 3: Get 3-D Geometric Transformation That Aligns Moving With Fixed.
% The |imregtform| function can be used when you are interested in the
% geometric transformation estimate that is used by |imregister| to form
% the registered output image. |imregtform| uses the same algorithm as
% |imregister| and takes the same input arguments as |imregister|. Since
% visual inspection of the resulting volume from |imregister| indicated
% that the registration was successful, you can call |imregtform| with the
% same input arguments to get the geometric transformation associated with
% this registration result.

geomtform = imregtform(movingVolume,Rmoving, fixedVolume,Rfixed, 'rigid', optimizer, metric)

%%
% The result of imregtform is a geometric transformation object. This
% object includes a property, T, that defines the 3-D affine transformation
% matrix.

geomtform.T

%% 
% The transformPointsForward method of the geometric transformation can be
% used to determine where a point [u,v,w] in the moving image maps as a
% result of the registration. Because spatially referenced inputs were
% specified to imregtform, the geometric transformation maps points in the
% world coordinate system from moving to fixed. The transformPointsForward
% method is used below to determine the transformed location of the center
% of the moving image in the world coordinate system.

centerXWorld = mean(Rmoving.XWorldLimits);
centerYWorld = mean(Rmoving.YWorldLimits);
centerZWorld = mean(Rmoving.ZWorldLimits);
[xWorld,yWorld,zWorld] = transformPointsForward(geomtform,centerXWorld,centerYWorld,centerZWorld);

%%
% You can use the worldToSubscript method of Rfixed to determine the
% element of the fixed volume that aligns with the center of the moving
% volume.

[r,c,p] = worldToSubscript(Rfixed,xWorld,yWorld,zWorld)

%% Step 4: Apply Geometric Transformation Estimate To Moving Image Volume.
% The |imwarp| function can be used to apply the geometric transformation
% estimate from imregtform to a 3-D volume. The 'OutputView' Name/Value is
% used to define a spatial referencing argument that determines the world
% limits and resolution of the output resampled image. You can produce the
% same results given by |imregister| by using the spatial referencing
% object associated with the fixed image. This creates an output volume in
% which the world limits and resolution of the fixed and moving image are
% the same. Once the world limits and resolution of both volumes are the
% same, there is pixel to pixel correspondence between each sample of the
% moving and fixed volumes.
movingRegisteredVolume = imwarp(movingVolume,Rmoving,geomtform,'bicubic','OutputView',Rfixed);

%% 
% Use imshowpair again to view an axial slice through the center of the registered volume
% produced by |imwarp|.

imshowpair(movingRegisteredVolume(:,:,centerFixed(3)), fixedVolume(:,:,centerFixed(3)));
