[Insight-users] Procrustes registration again

Hi all,
maybe that would be more efficient to use an ICP registration directly?
But I think ICP need two models very close to be fast.
Is the demon's registration fast?
As the registration that I need is a non-rigid one, I plained to use 
rigid registration first for a better performance, but maybe that will 
decrease it?

thanks
