[Rtk-users] CBCT reconstruction using rtkfdk

Hi,
If your first projection and your last projections are at the same
position, you probably want to use
rtksimulatedgeometry --output="geometry.xml" --nproj=721 --arc=360.5
--sdd=553.74 --sid=230.66

You indicate --newspacing 0.5 but your metadata says 0.05? The Hamamatsu
Photonics C7942CA-22 seems to have 2400x2400 pixels so you probably want to
use (if your detector is well aligned)
rtkprojections --path "D:\CT projection\walnut" --output "projections.mha"
--regexp .tif --newspacing 0.05 --neworigin -1199.75,-1199.75,0
(the last coordinate of origin is ignored).
