Abstract
In this paper we present a parallel version of an existing Matlab software for dynamic Magnetic Resonance Imaging which implements a reconstruction technique based on B-spline Reduced-encoding Imaging by Generalized series Reconstruction. The parallel primitives used are provided by MatlabMPI. The parallel Matlab application is tested on a network of Linux workstations.
