 Tutoriels
 =========
 
+The tutorials have been developed and administrated by Dr Benjamin Auer, Clinical Nuclear Medicine Physicist at the Brigham and Women's Hospital (Contact: <bauer@bwh.harvard.edu>). Dr. Sophia Pells, Post-Doctoral Associate at the University of Massachusetts Chan Medical School, and Dr. Emilie Roncali, Associate Professor at the University of California Davis, are associate editors of the tutorials.
 
-We've created tutorials for GATE (SPECT and PET) and Castor (reconstruction) and made them available on GitHub. 
-Macros and step by step guidance can be accessed via the links below. 
-We also offer complimentary phantoms for quality control and realistic clinical studies. 
-Additionally, we provide a tutorial on GATE data analysis, along with sample codes.
+Several tutorials were created for [GATE](http://www.opengatecollaboration.org) (SPECT/PET Imaging and Internal Dosimetry) and [CASToR](https://castor-project.org) (SPECT Reconstruction) and are available on GitHub.
 
+GATE and CASToR macros and step-by-step guidance can be accessed via the links below. We also offer a digital phantom library for quality control and realistic clinical studies. The digital phantoms described and distributed free-of-charge can be incorporated in GATE for emulating nuclear medicine acquisition. We provide Defrise, Derenzo, and Jaszczak phantoms used in quality control procedures. Additionally, we provide digital phantoms emulating clinical <sup>177</sup>Lu-DOTATATE, brain perfusion, dopamine transporter, and glioblastoma radiotracer distribution.

+The open-source mesh50_XCAT phantom based on the 4D extended cardiac-torso digital anthropomorphic ([XCAT](https://otc.duke.edu/industry-investors/available-technologies/xcat/)) human phantom can be downloaded [here](https://github.com/BenAuer2021/Mesh-based-Human-Phantom-for-Simulation/edit/main/README.md). We provide digital activity phantoms emulating clinical skeletal, thyroid, brain DaT, and brain perfusion radiotracer distribution. Additionally, we provide a tutorial on GATE data analysis via ROOT and Python, along with sample codes.

-- GATE Simulation Examples for SPECT Imaging  https://github.com/BenAuer2021/Simulation-Of-Nuclear-Medicine-Imaging-Systems-Scintigraphy-SPECT
+Tutorials cover the following aspects, - Build and run realistic simulations using open-source phantoms and software (GATE). - Analyze the simulated data with open-source software (ROOT and Python). - Reconstruct the simulated data with open-source software (CASToR). - Download and Use the benchmark examples emulating clinical acquisition.
