[Rtk-users] FirstReconstruction questions

[Simon Rit]

Hi,
RTK cone beam reconstruction filters expect line integrals but the
projection that you are showing seems to have the highest value in air. RTK
automatically processes such projections with log and normalization if the
pixels are unsigned short. Otherwise, you need to do it yourself.
It is not clear if the geometry is correct from the reconstruction screen
shot. The best would be to share your code if you want us to have a look.
