Description

Parallel Computing for Medical Imaging (PCMI)

Cyberinfrastructure-enabled, HPC-based parallel computing (parallel algorithm developments and implementations) for medical imaging. It includes (1) parallel algorithms for medical image reconstructions (parallel Fourier projection, parallel algebraic reconstruction, and parallel filered back-projection), (2) segmentation, (3) registration, (4) texturing and classification,(5) enhancement, etc. The current NIH sponsored research work are on the parallel reconstruction algorithms are Katsevich algorithm for XCT reconstruction, testing the deployment of one-sided communication technique, heterogeneous windows compute cluster system, parallel EM algorithms, distributed computing environment, local image reconstruction, and truncated Hilbert transform.
