Hi Luis,

   Well as u said, the data sets align perfectly even before =
registration. That is first slice of CT Volume align perfectly with =
first slice of PET Volume. Similarly with the last slices of both.=20
   Now the problem is with the resolution. CT has 512x512 resolution and =
PET has 128x128. So we can't fuse these two data sets directly because =
of difference in resolution. So first i register these two data sets so =
that i get registered output of dimension 512x512. Then i fuse CT and =
registered output.

   Now in registred output i get some blank slices in front and back =
side of the volume which should not happen because the original data =
sets are alrealy aligned (if resolution is not considered).
 =20
   Now in this case which paremeter i have to change to remove blank =
slices.
   My paremeters are:-
      Translate scale : 10000
      Max Step Length : 1
      Min step Lenght : 0.0001
      Optimizer scale : 1
      Spatial samples : 1000
      bins            : 50
      Levels       : 3
      Iterations      : 150

please help me in this regard.

Thanks in advance.

-Regards,
  Sateesh.
