US-guided percutaneous focal liver tumor ablations have been considered promising curative treatment techniques. To address cases with invisible or poorly visible tumors, registration of 3D US with CT or MRI is a critical step. By taking advantage of deep learning techniques to efficiently detect representative features in both modalities, we aim to develop a 3D US-CT/MRI registration approach for liver tumor ablations.
