A novel GPU based parallel motion correction method for high throughput ofMRI study is presented. With ultra-high processing speed, this method enables real-time motion correction while allowing future integration of computationally intense processing steps including iterative reconstruction and automatic segmentation for high-throughput interactive brain circuit analysis. The algorithm utilizes an iterative inverse update strategy, which dramatically reduces computational cost. GPU specific features such as texture caching and hard-wired interpolation are also utilized for the highest efficiency. Compared to currently available methods, the proposed algorithm shows the lowest RMS error rate and highest speed.
