In all 4D to 3D registrations, user is offered a choice of currently selected timepoint as a Base, or instead determine timepoint of Maximal Information. In PET to Anatomy registration it is always
Maximal Information. Maximal information timepoint is assumed to have the best contrast between tissues and thus provide the best registration quality.

In all registrations, 3D and 4D, implemented mechanism of tolerating the memory allocation failure. Since Finetune is highly parallelized at many leveel and pet-thread memory requirements are high, for large images and high core count a memory allocation error occurs. Old versions of FireVoxel either failed or lately the Parallel mechanism was disabled. Now fully parallel veersion is ran, the threads which failed are recorded into "Failed" thread array and then ran in serial mode.

Ensure correct functioning of the Anatomy-constrained (tube) IDIF function on the Brookhaven PET data.
In this example, two Macroseeds left and right are placed by User on the branches of the carotid artery.
Algorithm ran twice with identical (default) parameters.
Positioning of both corresponding ROIs are shown on orthogonal projections.

Specifically for calculating distance of the fit of 2 curves that are sampled at highly uneven intervals: Implemented the function for L2 integration based distance for two functions F(t) and G(t). Perform exact integration of 2 piecewise linear functions.
Replace the "goodness of the fit" with the new integration function. Old function was simply a sum of difference at sampled timepoints that was giving unjust weight to the beginning of the curve were sampling was much more dense.

Substantially increased quality of the registration of PET to MRI in the new version comparing to the variant of registration used by Anne. This is for the patient MG. (old=left, right=Build 129A).
Also, with the respect to "reconstructing PET with MRI priors", notice a very large angle between MRI and PET in the original data.
And new registration result in multiple projections:
