Projection geometryΒΆ

Plastimatch uses the same internal geometry for the DRR and FDK codes.

The DRR code generates images from a volume, using the following geometry description:

Inputs

Units

Default Value

SID

mm

1630

SAD

mm

1000

Angle

degrees

0

Target

3d position (mm)

0,0,0

Camera

3d position (mm)

Computed from Target, Angle and SAD

CT Zero

3d position (vox)

Same as input volume

Panel resolution

pixels

1024 x 768

Panel size

mm

400 x 300

Window

pixels

Same as resolution

NRM

3d direction

Computed from Target and Camera

VUP

3d direction

Hard coded to (0,0,1)

Panel Orientation

3d direction

Computed from NRM and VUP
