      [For the entire collection see Zbl 0746.00070.] The authors present a new iterative method for image reconstruction from noisy data in positron emmission tomography. The function to be maximized consists of a maximum likelihood term penalized by a term that enforces local smoothness. The method is compared with two other ones, the convolution method and a method for maximizing likelihood, using three medical tasks and three different numbers of iterations. The results of the new method are very promising for pointwise accuracy, but do not offer any improvement from the point of view of structured accuracy. It is also shown that the relative merit of the reconstruction algorithms can be extremely dependent on the task.
