The school will cover basic principles of the physics behind the acquisition process and image reconstruction methods used for PET and SPECT, with specific information on the challenges for TotalBody PET. We will also briefly cover MR aspects. The school will include practical sessions with the Open Source software Synergistic Image Reconstruction Framework (SIRF).

Eric's publication on evaluating MR-based motion correction using a novel phantom and robot is now out. This collaboration between various institutions including Magdeburg, Leipzig and UCL was the result of exchanges sponsored by CCP PET/MR.
Palak has won joint 3rd place in this year's CoSeC Impact award with a case study on her work on TOF-PET and KEM for PET/MR. CoSeC (Computational Science Centre for Research Communities) is the organisation that supports CCP SyneRBI, CCPi (and other CCPs/HECs), and therefore SIRF and associated projects including STIR.
You can find the case studies on the CoSeC website at SCD CoSeC Impact Award 2021: Case Studies (stfc.ac.uk)
PET++, CCP SyneRBI and CCPi jointly organize two hackathons on algorithms benchmark for medical imaging reconstruction. The first one will take place on November 2021 and the second one in January 2022. The goal of the hackathons is to establish a benchmark between the numerous iterative algorithms for CT and PET reconstructions which have been proposed in the recent years, with a focus on randomized algorithms.

We are delighted to announce the release of our Synergistic Image Reconstruction Framework (SIRF) and associated projects Version 3.1. This release adds a few new features and quite a lot of new notebooks in SIRF-Exercises. It is currently in heavy use in our Training School on Synergistic Image Reconstruction, jointly organised with CCPi.
The main changes of the 3.1 release are:

Royal Society Theme issue Synergistic tomographic image reconstruction: part 1
Compiled and edited by Charalampos Tsoumpas, Jakob Sauer Jørgensen, Christoph Kolbitsch and Kris Thielemans.
Traditionally, tomographic image reconstruction has focused on estimating images from a single modality and acquisition. This theme issue focuses on synergistic image reconstruction which aims to utilise both similarities and complementary information between different data to make the synergistic combination of data offer more than the sum of its parts.
