✦ Synopsis

First SPECT results using a multiplicative iterative reconstruction algorithm are presented. The superiority of the iterative technique over filtered backprojection is demonstrated in two thyroid SPECT studies. Obvious benefits of the new reconstruction technique are better defined outlines of the imaged organ and patient body as well as negligible artificial image amplitudes outside the patient.

A rapid automated method for reconstructing echo planar imaging (EPI) data has been developed and is shown to improve image quality by suppressing the troublesome ghost artifact. The algorithm can be applied without prior knowledge obtained from either reference scans or operator intervention. It fi

## Abstract Despite the adequacy of Bayesian methods to reconstruct nuclear medicine SPECT (single‐photon emission computed tomography) images, they are rarely used in everyday medical practice. This is primarily because of their computational cost and the need to appropriately select the prior mod
