[Gate-users] How to read NCAT phantom

[AliAsghar Parach]

Hi Yanfei
you can use for example MATLAB program for changing the NCAT format from
float32 to uint 16, but before it you should changed the phantom ID to
integer then write it to uint16 format. then you can use XMedcon(Win or
Linux Format) to change the uint16 to interfile format. at the end for
constructing the header, as mentioned by Didier, use the gate example and
change your own parameters.

hope this help you.
