In this paper we present a new methodology for cardiac motion tracking in tagged MRI using nonrigid image registration based on subdivision surfaces and subdivision lattices. We use two sets of registrations to do the motion tracking. First, a set of surface registrations is used to create and initially align the subdivision model of the left ventricle with short-axis and long-axis MR images. Second, a series of volumetric registrations are used to perform the motion tracking and to reconstruct the 4D cardiac motion field from the tagged MR images. The motion of a point in the myocardium over time is calculated by registering the images taken during systole to the set of reference images taken at end-diastole. Registration is achieved by optimizing the positions of the vertices in the base lattice so that the mutual information of the images being registered is maximized. The presented method is validated using a cardiac motion simulator and we also present strain measurements obtained from a group of normal volunteers.
