[Gate-users] a routine converting from ROOT output file to sinogram

[Jean-Daniel Leroux]

Well, I don't have routines for ROOT classes but I have some routines to convert
the GATE liste-mode ASCII file (coincidences or singles) into sinograms.

Reading the ASCII text file is slow but I also have a routine which read and
save the list-mode data into a binary format. It does not compress a lot the
file size (factor of 2) but reading the binary file is nearly 20 times faster
so that only the first reading of the ASCII text file is slow.

See TIRIUS for the conversion routines or I can send you only the class you need
if you prefer:
