Faster Tomography Image Reconstruction from Acceleware

Filed under: Radiology

Acceleware, a company out of Calgary, Canada specializing in high powered parallel processing computer systems, is entering the medical market with the AxRecon™ system for fast CT image reconstruction.

From the press release:

AxRecon works with existing cone beam CT scanners to eliminate the bottleneck by significantly speeding up filtered back projection computations. This enables medical and commercial users to accelerate the reconstruction of their data and improve the quality of their images without disrupting their current workflow.

The AxRecon solution combines Acceleware’s proprietary software acceleration libraries with the massive parallel processing power of NVIDIA® Graphic Processing Units (GPUs) to dramatically increase the speed of sophisticated computations. AxRecon seamlessly integrates with existing CT scanners with minimal setup. By accelerating algorithms such as filtered back-projection image reconstruction, clients are able to increase the speed of their operations and quality of their end results, while reducing the energy use and physical footprint of their high performance computing systems.
