Method and device for the registration of images
First Claim
1. A method for the registration of a series of at least three temporally successively acquired images of an object, where individual images to be registered are transformed into registered images by means of an individual mapping rule, and where a similarity measure is used to determine the mapping rule, characterized in that a common similarity measure of all images is used to determine the mapping rules for the images to be registered.

Abstract
The invention relates to a method for the registration of a series of at least three temporally successively acquired images I1-In) of an object, where individual images (I2-In) to be registered are transformed into registered images (I2′-In′) by means of an individual mapping rule (T2-Tn) and where a similarity measure (M) is used so as to determine the mapping rule (T2-Tn). In order to achieve a higher registration accuracy, in accordance with the invention it is proposed to utilize a common similarity measure (M) of all images (I1′-In′) in order to determine the mapping rules (T2-Tn) for all images. The invention also relates to a corresponding registration device.

- 8. A device for the registration of a series of at least three temporally successively acquired images of an object, which device includes a storage unit for storing images and an arithmetic unit for determining individual mapping rules for the transformation of individual images to be registered into registered images, a similarity measure being used for the determination of the mapping rules, characterized in that the arithmetic unit is arranged in such a manner that a common similarity measure of all images is used to determine the mapping rules for the images to be registered.
