[Rtk-users] FW: Elekta CBCT Reconstrution

[Simon Rit]

Hi,
I also seem to have difficulties with the mailing list, I'll ask the admin,
sorry about that.
The conversion is based on this code:
https://github.com/SimonRit/RTK/blob/master/include/rtkElektaSynergyLookupTableImageFilter.hxx#L43-L56
There is nothing fancy except that the values are reverted compared to the
usual scale (maximum value has maximum attenuation) and that the first and
last values take the same values.
