Detailed Description

Class to compute 'time-efficiency' factors for motino corrected projection data.

When list mode data is binned into 3d sinograms using motion correction, (or when a 3d sinograms is motion corrected), the resulting sinogram is not 'consistent' due to some LORs not being measured during the whole frame. This is discussed in some detail in
K. Thielemans, S. Mustafovic, L. Schnorr, Image Reconstruction of Motion Corrected Sinograms, poster at IEEE Medical Imaging Conf. 2003, available at http://www.hammersmithimanet.com/~kris/papers/.

This class computes these 'time-efficiency' factors.

See general MC doc for how the LMC method works.

Format of parameter file

FindMCNormFactors Parameters :=
; output name
; filenames will be constructed by appending _f#g1d0b0.hs and .s
; where # is the frame number
output filename prefix:= output

; file to get frame definitions (see doc for TimeFrameDefinitions)
time frame_definition file:=some_ECAT7.S
; file that will be used to get dimensions/scanner etc
; can usually be the same ECAT7 file as above
template_projdata:= projdata
; frame to do in this run (if -1 all frames will be done)
time frame number := 1

; next allows you to do only a few segments (defaults to all in template)
;maximum absolute segment number to process:=0

; object specifying motion data
; example given for Polaris
; warning: the Polaris parameters might change
; (see doc for RigidObject3DMotionFromPolaris for up-to-date info)
Rigid Object 3D Motion Type:=Motion From Polaris

attenuation_filename:=H02745_tr.a
transmission_duration:=300
transformation_from_scanner_coordinates_filename:=966/transformation_from_scanner_to_polaris
End Rigid Object 3D Motion From Polaris:=

; experimental support for method where the usual detection efficiencies
; are taken into account here, and not during the list mode binning
; default is not to use this
do pre normalisation := 0
Bin Normalisation type := supported_normalisation_type


; specify number of intervals that will be taken in this frame

; default duration in secs
default time interval:=5
minimum number of time intervals per frame:= 1
maximum number of time intervals per frame:=1

◆ post_processing()

bool stir::FindMCNormFactors::post_processing ( )
