    Not exactly. rtk::FDKConeBeamProjectionFilter assumes that you pass
    the line integral (ln(I0/I)). But rtkfdk uses the ProjectionsReader
    to read the projections and converts them depending on the type: for
    mha or mhd, it just reads it and nothing else. For tif, it assumes
    that I is passed, try to guess I0 (or gets it from the cmd line) and
    computes ln(I0/I).<br>
    So from each tif projection, instead of letting them go through the
    ProjectionsReader in RTK, directly use the ImageReader, stack them
    and pass it to the reconstruction algorithm. In other words, if you
    use SimpleRTK, use ImageSeriesReader instead of ProjectionsReader.<br>
    Regarding the geometry, it would be nice to be confident in the
    geometry parameters, maybe from their Matlab code?<br>

        <div>By examining the parameters of the acquisition, I saw that

          sid by a factor 1000, just in case I would be wrong in units.
          It reduces the first default I pointed out in my first
          message. Also note that my input dataset was <span

                    <div>Hi,<br>
                    </div>
                    I quickly checked SophiaBeads_64_averaged.zip.
                    First, it seems that what is provided is directly
                    the line integral. RTK will process the tif images
                    as if it were a photon count so I converted the tif
                    projections to mha to avoid this. For the
                    conversion, I used another piece of software but you
                    can easily do the same thing with SimpleRTK.<br>
                  </div>
                  Second, I used the enclosed script which gives me a
                  much better result. I have however a geometry problem.
                  I think they provide a Matlab piece of code to get the
                  center of rotation. If you can run it and find out
                  what is this center, then you can use it to configure
                  the geometry better with the options --proj_iso_x and
                  --proj_iso_y.<br>
