This challenge aims on applying available image reconstruction algorithms on provided USCT data in order to establish a first interface specification. \u00a0In the panel discussion we are planning to discuss the experience of challenge participants and possible future steps towards objectively evaluate and compare USCT reconstruction algorithms and imaging protocols.<\/p>\n<p>Staring Tuesday and throughout the ultrasound conference <strong>posters<\/strong> will be presented describing the data sets and experimental setups in detail and show first results of reconstructions. Everyone is invited to participate: so if you would like to add an \u2018ad hoc\u2019 poster, just contact Nicole Ruiter or Koen van Dongen, we will try to squeeze you in.<\/p>\n<p>Sincerely yours,<\/p>\n<p>Nicole V.
