[Gate-users] Generating scatter components into interfiles

[Pietrzyk, Uwe]

Hi Allison, 

to start from the root output is certainly a good idea!
It my need a preprocessing step to arrange the data
for reconstruction. I would like to recommend you to
check the STIR- project via the link given below.

I hope this is helpful for you!

Kind regards and best wishes,

Uwe Pietrzyk

I can use the root output and with C code split this into .txt files which I am then planning on using IDL to convert to interfile.  However, I am struggling to do the same with SPECT data. I can output data from different rotation angles but I believe I am going wrong because of the x,y,z coordinates of the heads changing for each projection.
