-
- I have written my own reconstruction (or better alingment software). It runs
- on a PC, but the actual matching is done on a Sun. However when you want to put
- some time in it, it must be easy to convert it to Turbo or Microsoft C.
-
- The idea is to find the optimal fit that minimizes the difference between
- the greyvalues of both sections. I only correct for rotation and translation,
- what limits the reconstruction to material with limited deformation. (plastic
- sections).

- For other section types : parafin, etc, Rotation and Translation only is not
- enough, so you should not use this program in that case.
- > 6. whether it's free, share or commercial
- It is free as long as you don't use it to make it commercial
