Abstract :
Hardware acceleration is widely used in the medical image reconstruction which is computation intensive. Meanwhile, transaction level modeling has many advantages like very fast simulation speed and is really suitable for early architecture modeling and exploration. This paper introduces the transaction level modeling technique into the hardware acceleration for CT medical image reconstruction. Also, certain architecture exploration is performed.
