PCT (Proton Computed Tomography) is a toolkit used to process proton CT data and reconstruct proton stopping power maps. PCT is written both in C++ and Python, and is designed to be used either as a code library, or with command-line applications.
Usage of each PCT application can be described using the --help/-h option. For instance, running
pctfdk --helpdisplays the help for pctfdk.
Reconstruction typically involves the following steps:
pctpairprotonsin order to arrange ROOT data in a format described here.pctpaircutsin order to remove nuclear collisions.pctbinningin order to compute the distance-driven binning as described here.pctfdkin order to reconstruct the data generated in the previous step using distance-driven FDK (as described here).
