摘要

Medical image data is produced in ever–increasing quantities and varieties. The digital production of these data makes them accessible for further automatic analysis and processing. Whereas automatic analysis is fairly common in the text domain, analysis of medical images in large quantities and in a large variety is a relatively new discipline. Computational limits are often restricting the possibilities to analyze the large amounts of data produced automatically. Grid computing opens new possibilities to use an intra–hospital computing infrastructure for research projects. This article describes the griddification of a content–based image retrieval system called the GNU Image Finding Tool (GIFT). The goal of this study was to show the potential of grid computing and the benefits for the medical applications from the available grid computing power. We use the ARC (Advance Resource Connector) middleware to benefit from the distributed computing power available through the KnowARC research project funded by the European Union. The feature extraction part of the GIFT was griddified. A hospital grid concept is introduced. Grid performance was measured with a real griddified system for and several job submissions. Grid computing has the potential to help computer science researchers in medical institutions to better use an existing infrastructure. Our results show that particularly computationally–intensive tasks such as the extraction of visual features from large image databases can be per formed much faster. This allows to explore more complex feature spaces and also larger image datasets.
