Nowadays GPU (Graphic Process Unit) is not only used to show and render some images, but also for another computation. In this paper, we tried to use GPU to do some morphology operations to remove skull from axial MRI images. This skull removing process is an important step in brain segmentation because we would like to work with the brain only, without any skull on it. The result shows that simple morphology operations to remove skull has been successfully applied on MRI images, but there are still many parts that can be develop to get better images.
