Using GATE CT data

The example script gate_CT_main.m is an example on how to use CT projection data collected with GATE. Currently ROOT data is not supported. The example is based on the classic CT example. The function loadProjectionData loads any binary projection data and can be used to read all the binary files with the same file ending in the specified folder (the user will be prompted for the data). Simply select any projection data file and all the other projections will be automatically loaded. loadProjectionData can also save the projection data to a MATLAB/Octave mat-file, though that is not enabled by default.

Other than the data load, there are no differences between using GATE data to that of any other projection data. In the future, when ROOT data support is added, similar scatter extraction features, as with PET data, will most likely be added.
