Real-Time Compressive Sensing MRI Reconstruction Using GPU Computing and Split Bregman Methods

Table 3

Double-precision GPU CS MRI reconstruction times for test images ranging from 16² to 4096² with and without CPU multithreading. Effective speedup is the multicore CPU time relative to the GPU time.
