[Rtk-users] Blurred piece-wise reconstruction

[vincent]

Hi Simon,

thank you very much for the quick reply.

I have some leads about my problem, I'll post the solution if I find 
it.  In the meantime, I tested the division option that went under my 
radar, I am afraid.

I am certainly doing something wrong or not understanding the mechanism 
of that option.  From what I understood from the code, the streamer will 
split the volume to be reconstructed in <dimensions> subset along the y 
axis, which is indeed exactly what I am looking for.  When I tried to 
use it, however, I got an error message, hereafter reproduced:

itk::MemoryAllocationError (0x7fbb04000940)
Location: "unknown"
File: 
/home/vincent/IPTools/InsightToolkit-5.0.1/Modules/Core/Common/include/itkImportImageContainer.hxx
Line: 199
Description: Failed to allocate memory for image.

The command line I used was

rtkfdk -p . -r projections.mhd --hardware cuda -o reconstruction.mhd -g 
rt900.xml --spacing 0.23 --dimension 2000 --divisions 4

I am using a NVIDIA GEForce-GTX 1080 TI with 11 Go of RAM and able to 
reconstruct a 1024*1024*1024 volume.

Could you please help me finding what I did wrong ?

Thank you again for your invaluable help,

kindest regards,

Vincent
