Abstract: Previous studies carried out by our group have demonstrated that 3D fractal dimension algorithms detect changes in apparently normal magnetic resonance (MR) images of the brain in patients suffering early stages of Multiple Sclerosis. In addition, 3D fractal dimension has also been demonstrated to be useful for detecting brain abnormalities in other cerebral diseases, as in Alzheimer’s disease and in children born after intrauterine growth restriction. Thus, 3D fractal dimension detection has been proposed as a valuable and powerful diagnostic tool. To our knowledge, no user-friendly software is available to obtain the 3D fractal dimension of volumetric MR images. In this paper, we present an optimized Web platform that allows computing the 3D fractal dimension value for uploaded MR images in an interactive user-friendly way. Moreover, and because the computational cost of the involved algorithms is very high for interactive use, we have focused our efforts on the optimization of the appropriate algorithms using the parallel computing power of current GPUs and multi-core CPUs.
