We present the recent results in image reconstruction obtained with the University of Cambridge's software package BSMEM (BiSpectrum Maximum Entropy Method). We also evaluate the performance of BSMEM reconstructions for several datasets susceptible to render the reconstruction process harder: with missing power-spectrum or bispectrum points, low Signal-to-Noise ratio on visibility phases or visibility amplitudes, or problematic source morphologies (important amount of resolved flux, centro-symmetry). Interferometer configurations with 4, 6, 8 and 15 telescopes are examined.
