The accuracy with which a recent elastic surface registration algorithm deforms the complex geometry of a skull is examined. This algorithm is then coupled to a line based algorithm as is frequently used in patient specific feature registration. This addition allows registering target features that are allowed while dissimilar features in a statistical set of geometries can be automatically ignored during the surface registration process.
