cid-X: Consistent invertible deformation-vector-fields for the XCAT phantom

cid-X is a python software package that makes the output XCAT deformation vector fields (DVFs) consistent and invertible. It produces forward and backward DVFs, as well as images corresponding to such DVFs. If you use this software for your research, please cite this publication https://doi.org/10.1088/1361-6560/ab8533 by Eiben and Bertholet et al. that describes its implementation in detail.

Features

Using this post-processing framework will

• make the DVFs invertible

• preserve the sliding motion between the chest wall and the interior organs such as lung, heart and liver

• correct for potential gaps and overlaps between the sliding regions

• convert the DVFs into a file format compatible with nifty-reg tools.
