Architecting New Dimensions Of Medical Imaging

摘要

Several technologies-like 4D (3D over time) ultrasound imaging (Fig. 1)-have taken the medical-imaging market by storm. The medical field will continue to benefit from Moore's Law as speed and resolution continue to improve. Take for example the joint effort between engineers and scientists from IBM and the Mayo Clinic that seeks to exploit recent parallelism advances in processors such as the Cell.
