Many applications of MRI are facilitated by segmenting the volume spanned by the imagery into the various tissue types that are present. Intensity-based classification of MR images has proven to be problematic, even when advanced techniques such as non-parametric multi-channel methods are used. A persistent difficulty has been accommodating the spatial intensity inhomogeneities that are due to the equipment.
