Hello,

This message occurs when the images don't overlap.

If this error message occurs at the first iteration, its due to the initial parameters. If not then the optimizer is not setup correctly and is miss behaving due to scale, minimizing/maximizing, gradient noise etc..

Typically the CenterTransformInitializer[1] can be used to get reasonable initial parameters for many cases.

Also you are using the older ITKv3 registration framework. I would recommend using the v4 version of the example[2], I believe it give a clearer error message for this case.

Brad
