The “Reconstructed Image from Simulations Ensemble” (RISE), based on Monte Carlo simulation techniques, statistical physics concepts and parametric modelling
of the imaged target, provides a novel reconstruction method for emission tomography. The method simulating a huge ensemble of possible image reconstructions and
choosing the “optimum” solution based on a goodness criterion, provides reconstructions of superior image quality as compared to the conventional methods. Although
RISE has proven well suited in cases of noisy data, it could not be implemented without utilizing High Performance Computing resources. The capabilities of GPUs to provide
high performance computation in such simulation problems enabled the implementation of the method in emission tomography for image reconstruction of real samples.
