Abstract :
We present and review several successful applications using graphic processing unit to accelerate the processing of biomedical optics data including image processing, Monte Carlo simulation, image reconstruction and statistics analysis. It is shown that using GPU can obtain significant performance enhancement comparing with that based on CPU calculation.
