We have to take the transpose of the input and output to get the same % results (up to numerical noise) as using the toolbox directly. % Each row of the projection matrix corresponds to a detector element. % Detector t for angle p is for row 1 + t + p*proj_geom.DetectorCount. % Each column corresponds to a volume pixel. % Pixel (x,y) corresponds to column 1 + x + y*vol_geom.GridColCount. astra_mex_projector('delete', proj_id); astra_mex_matrix('delete', matrix_id);
