RESUMO
With the emergence of the dynamic functional connectivity analysis, and the studies relying on real-time neurological feedback, the need for rapid processing methods becomes even more critical. Seed-based Correlation Analysis (SCA) of fMRI data has been used to create brain connectivity networks. With close to a million voxels in a fMRI dataset, the number of calculations involved in SCA becomes high. This work aims to demonstrate a new approach which produces high-resolution brain connectivity maps rapidly. The results show that HPCME with four FPGAs can improve the SCA processing speed by a factor of 40 or more over that of a PC workstation with a multicore CPU.
