Accelerating Neuroimage Registration through Parallel Computation of Similarity Metric.

Blog Article

Neuroimage registration is crucial for brain morphometric analysis and treatment efficacy evaluation.However, existing advanced registration algorithms such as FLIRT and ANTs are not efficient enough for clinical use.In this paper, a GPU Insulated Beverage Containers/Dispensers implementation of FLIRT with the correlation ratio (CR) as the similarity metric and a GPU accelerated correlation coefficient (CC) calculation for the symmetric Massage Oils diffeomorphic registration of ANTs have been developed.

The comparison with their corresponding original tools shows that our accelerated algorithms can greatly outperform the original algorithm in terms of computational efficiency.This paper demonstrates the great potential of applying these registration tools in clinical applications.
