contents In this work we propose an adaptive Finite Element Method (FEM) formulation for the Deformable Image Registration problem (DIR) together with a residual-based a posteriori error estimator, whose efficiency and reliability are theoretically established. This estimator is used to guide Adaptive Mesh Refinement and coarsening (AMR). The nonlinear Euler-Lagrange equations associated with the minimisation of the relevant functional are solved with a pseudo time-stepping fixed-point scheme which is further accelerated using Anderson Acceleration (AA). The efficient implementation of these solvers relies on an efficient adaptive mesh data structure based on forests-of-octrees endowed with space-filling-curves. Several numerical results illustrate the performance of the proposed methods applied to adaptive DIR in application-oriented problems.
