<div dir="ltr">Hi Tommi,<div><br></div><div>If those images are CT, it might be that the pixelvalues are converted to Hounsfield units: the pixelvalues are shifted so that 'air' equals -1000. Using the reader with <b>signed short</b> would then solve your problem.</div><div><br></div><div>Greetings,</div><div>Lambert</div></div><div id="DDB4FAA8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2"><br>
