How To Install bart-cuda on Kali Linux

In this tutorial we learn how to install bart-cuda on Kali Linux. bart-cuda is tools for computational magnetic resonance imaging

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install bart-cuda on Kali Linux.

What is bart-cuda

bart-cuda is:

The Berkeley Advanced Reconstruction Toolbox (BART) is a free and open-source image-reconstruction framework for Computational Magnetic Resonance Imaging. It consists of a programming library and a toolbox of command-line programs. The library provides common operations on multi-dimensional arrays, Fourier and wavelet transforms, as well as generic implementations of iterative optimization algorithms. The command-line tools provide direct access to basic operations on multi-dimensional arrays as well as efficient implementations of many calibration and reconstruction algorithms for parallel imaging and compressed sensing.

This package provides BART with CUDA support.

There are three methods to install bart-cuda on Kali Linux. We can use apt-get, apt and aptitude. In the following sections we will describe each method. You can choose one of them.
