Software speeds CT image reconstructions

AxRecon image-reconstruction software is available for medical imaging, security, and non-destructive testing tasks. Image reconstruction for Computed Tomography (CT) Scanners often takes hours of processing time. The software reduces the time required to complete this work from hours to minutes to speed imaging workflow. One user said AxRecon provides 3D reconstructions in up to 1/50th the time of a single-CPU. To meet workload demands, users often sacrifice image quality to save on processing time. AxRecon works with existing cone-beam CT scanners to eliminate bottlenecks by speeding filtered back-projection computations. This lets medical and commercial users accelerate the reconstruction of their data and improve the quality of their images without disrupting their current workflow. AxRecon combines proprietary software acceleration libraries with the massive parallel processing power of Nvidia GPUs to shorten sophisticated computations. The software works with existing CT scanners with minimal setup.
