Hi, >From what I see in your reconstruction screenshot, you have mainly one projection. 180° is too short for a short scan so I suggest to have at least 180°+cone angle. Don't you get a warning when launching the command line? It's hard to anticipate what happens if you don't use this amount of data. Since it's a Gate simulation, I suggest to start with a full acquisition to check that everything else is correct (distances, rotation direction, etc). Don't hesitate to share your Gate macro if you want us to check the geometry. Note that your spacing and origin parameters need commas instead of spaces or quotes to be adequately interpreted Simon
