The finite element method (FEM) is well suited for use in the non-rigid registration of magnetic resonance spectroscopy images (MRSI) with intraoperative ultrasound images of the prostate because FEM pro- vides a principled method for modeling the physical deformation caused when the MRSI intra-rectal imaging probe compresses the prostate. How- ever, FEM requires significant labor and computational time to construct a finite element model and solve the resulting large system of equations. In particular, any finite element based registration method must address the questions of how to generate a mesh from an image and how to solve the system of finite element equations eciently. This paper focuses on how m-rep image segmentations can be used to generate high quality multi-scale hexahedral meshes for use with FEM. Results from the ap- plication of this method to the registration of CT images of a prostate phantom with implanted brachytherapy seeds are presented.
