[Insight-users] Output of the atlas segmentation.

[Luis Ibanez]

Yasser,


The fixed and moving image should have the same dimensions,
but not necessarily the same size. That is, both images
should be 2D, or both should be 3D. But the actual number
of pixels along each dimension may be different between the
two images.

You should be ok using any atlas for your segmentation,
via demons deformable registration.


Regards,


   Luis
