## Abstract (arXiv)

Glioma growth may be quantified with longitudinal image registration. However, the large mass-effects and tissue changes across images pose an added challenge. Here, we propose a longitudinal, learning-based, and groupwise registration method for the accurate and unbiased registration of glioma MRI. We evaluate on a dataset from the Glioma Longitudinal AnalySiS consortium and compare it to classical registration methods. We achieve comparable Dice coefficients, with more detailed registrations, while significantly reducing the runtime to under a minute. The proposed methods may serve as an alternative to classical toolboxes, to provide further insight into glioma growth.
