Introduction: DRAMMS is a software package designed for 2D-to-2D and 3D-to-3D deformable medical image registration tasks.
Download: github folder dramms-1.5.1 (https://github.com/ouyangming/DRAMMS/blob/master/dramms-1.5.1-source.tar.gz)
or DRAMMS website (http://www.cbica.upenn.edu/sbia/software/dramms/download.html)
Installation: http://www.cbica.upenn.edu/sbia/software/dramms/installation.html
Applications: Some typical applications of DRAMMS include, but are not limited to,
-
Cross-subject registration of the same organ (can be brain, breast, cardiac, etc);
-
Mono- and Multi-modality registration (MRI, CT, histology);
-
Longitudinal registration (pediatric brain growth, cancer development, mouse brain development, etc);
-
Registration under missing correspondences (e.g., vascular lesions, tumors, histological cuts).
Features:
-
Fully-automatic --- no need for segmentation or any prior knowledge or user-initialization/intervention;
-
User-friendly --- two input images, two output (the registered image and the deformaiton field);
-
Generality --- default parameters work reasonably well for most cases (raw images, preprocessed images, multi-site data, etc)
Environment: runs in UNIX/Mac, takes Nifti/ANALYZE/MetaImage format.
