A novel method to obtain point correspondence in pairs of images is presented. Our approach is based on automatically establishing correspondence between linear structures which appear in images using robust features such as orientation, width and curvature extracted from those structures. The extracted points can be used to register sets of images. The potential of the developed approach is demonstrated on mammographic images.
