Hi Guifen

I do not see your ecat7 sinogram on our ftp. Can you put it there again?
Don't forget the "cd /in/kris", and add a "bin" to be sure.

See questions below

I don't know this one. Where does it come from? (sorry, my GATE knowledge is
close to 0).

how did you get proj.hs?

I'm guessing the CylindricalPET_0 and 10.png files are the output for the
Discovery?

If so, they look just as wrong, and they have nothing to do with ECAT7
file-format. This starts to look like you have a local GATE problem.
