While current state of the art MR-PET scanners enable simultaneous MR and PET measurements, the acquired data sets are still usually reconstructed separately. We propose a new multi-modality reconstruction framework using second order Total Generalized Variation (TGV) as a dedicated multi-channel regularization functional that jointly reconstructs images from both modalities. In this way, information about the underlying anatomy is shared during the image reconstruction process while unique differences are preserved. Results from numerical simulations and in-vivo experiments using a range of accelerated MR acquisitions and different MR image contrasts demonstrate improved PET image quality, resolution, and quantitative accuracy.

Article Synopsis
- A study developed a deep learning model called StrainNet that analyzes heart displacement and strain using cine MRI data and DENSE measurements.
- It involved training and testing the model on data gathered from a diverse group of patients with heart diseases and healthy individuals over several years, focusing on the model's accuracy in predicting myocardial movements.
- The results indicated that StrainNet performed better than traditional feature tracking methods, showing strong agreement with DENSE measurements for both global and segmental strain analysis.
Prognostic value of PET/CT and MR-based baseline radiomics among patients with non-metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Purpose: Radiomics is an emerging imaging assessment technique that has shown promise in predicting survival among nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients. Studies so far have focused on PET or MR-based radiomics independently. The aim of our study was to evaluate the prognostic value of clinical and radiomic parameters derived from both PET/CT and MR.

Article Synopsis
- This study explores a method that combines MRI and PET scans to analyze brain activity during a visual task, offering insights into blood flow and metabolism at the same time.
- The proposed method, called multimodality concatenated ICA (mcICA), effectively integrates data from both imaging techniques to create a comprehensive brain activation map.
- Results show that mcICA can accurately identify areas in the visual cortex that are activated through both blood-oxygen-level dependence (BOLD) and glucose uptake signals, enhancing our understanding of brain responses to external stimuli.
We consider a class of regularization methods for inverse problems where a coupled regularization is employed for the simultaneous reconstruction of data from multiple sources. Applications for such a setting can be found in multi-spectral or multimodality inverse problems, but also in inverse problems with dynamic data. We consider this setting in a rather general framework and derive stability and convergence results, including convergence rates.

Simultaneous Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scanning is a recent major development in biomedical imaging. The full integration of the PET detector ring and electronics within the MR system has been a technologically challenging design to develop but provides capacity for simultaneous imaging and the potential for new diagnostic and research capability. This article reviews state-of-the-art MR-PET hardware and software, and discusses future developments focusing on neuroimaging methodologies for MR-PET scanning.
