High speed image reconstruction for k-space trajectory data using graphic processing unit (GPU)

摘要

A method for reconstructing an image generated from radial trajectory data in frequency or k-space using a GPU. The method includes using a vertex shader of the GPU to transform coordinates of a window aligned with the radial trajectory data and using a pixel shader of the GPU to combine data along the radial trajectory with the coordinate transformed widow to distribute the data along the radial trajectory fed to the pixel shader into cells of a Cartesian coordinate system.
