“…Many previous studies in MRI and histology registration (see Table 3 2004; Meyer et al, 2006;Lebenberg et al, 2010;Schormann et al, 1995;Yelnik et al, 2007;Osechinskiy and Kruggel, 2011;Bardinet et al, 2002), and furthermore many previous studies included evaluation on only one dataset (Malandain et al, 2004;Choe et al, 2011;Meyer et al, 2006;Schormann et al, 1995;Kim et al, 2000;Yelnik et al, 2007;Osechinskiy and Kruggel, 2011;Bardinet et al, 2002;Lazebnik et al, 2003). Of the studies that did report accuracy on more than one dataset, TRE ranged from sub-millimeter (Ceritoglu et al, 2010;Jacobs et al, 1999;Yang et al, 2012) to 3-5 mm (Liu et al, 2012;Singh et al, 2008). Techniques that reported sub-millimeter TRE were applied on either whole brain sections of rodents or serially sectioned histology of primates, thus the smaller scale of anatomy and lack of variable resection boundaries can explain the lower TRE relative to our method.…”
