<div dir="ltr">Hi,<br>Quickly checking the code, the reason is pretty simple: rtkfourdfdk uses rtkSelectOneProjectionPerCycleImageFilter.h, which selects the closest projection to a given phase in each respiratory cycle. So setting the number of frames will not increase the number of frames per phase (and, therefore, blur). I think it's quite a common way of sorting in the literature, see for example [Sonke et al, Med Phys, 2005]: "For each breathing cycle, the projection closest to each breathing phase is selected."<br>The reason is explained in [Dietrich et al, PMB, 2006] or in a <a href="http://www.creatis.insa-lyon.fr/~srit/biblio/rit2007.pdf">simulation work</a> I did in the past.<br>Simon<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Aug 23, 2016 at 4:43 PM, K.Niepel <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:K.Niepel@physik.uni-muenchen.de" target="_blank">K.Niepel@physik.uni-muenchen.de</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

Hello there,<br>
<br>
I am currently trying out the rtkfourdfdk application on a moving
phantom data set with the number of phase bins varying from 15 down
to one. However, there is no noticeable blurring for lower fewer
bins as with the 3D rtkfdk appĀ - actually, the first frame seems to
be exactly the same for any total number of frames.<br>
<br>
The only setting i changed is the --frames argument. Am I missing
something?<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance,<br>
Kati<br>
