Table 2.

Skeleton, lungs, and skin registration results. The results are separated in two columns: before registration, i.e.: after the initialization alone and after registration. For the bone, the used error metric is the joint localization error, while for the lungs, skin, and the whole skeleton, it is the point to surface distance
