Comments for Tutorial 1:

• Better to talk about what is the motivation of this software/tutorial.
• Need to specify that this module is created for the trained physicians, assuming the users already know what are the plaques, Hounsfield Unit (HU), Agatston score. It would be good to mention that the cardiovascular disease is caused by plaques in arteries.
• It would be great to talk about the advantages of this software, such like it allows the users to select 80 KEV or 120 KEV, while other softwares don't; this software takes only 3 minutes, but the other software may take 18 minutes.
• Should mention SimpleITK and other tools they used to develop this software.
• Better to show a case study with both 80 KEV and 120 KEV.

Comments for Tutorial 2:

• It could be enhanced by providing the clinical background and motivation.
• Need to explain what are the input images and LGE-MRI?
• It would be better to explain how to download or built this software.
• Should provide the test data and specify what type of data are required if using own data, because there are so many different sequences, such like resolution, format, parameter.
• It would be good to give more details about what are the buttons do, e.g., 'registration', 'next', and where the results are saved?
• If the images need to be registered first, the authors should clearly specify it.
• 'CarreraSlice' is a new tool, so it would be better to briefly describe how to use it for segmentation.
