<p>Dear Emanuele,</p>
<p>You can enable the verbose to see the progression of the
sensitivity image generation (add the following option : -vb 2)<br>
</p>
<p>This computation performs a dual loop on all the detector
elements to compute all possible lines of response, depending on
the potential angle restrictions in the geometry file and
datafile. So the duration will mostly depend on the total number
of detectors and the image dimensions.<br>
</p>
<p>Once the sensitivity image is computed, it could be re-used for
other reconstructions (provided these reconstructions use the same
dimensions, projectors and image-based operations such as psf,
etc..) using the option -sens sensitivity_file.hdr.</p>
<p>I will forward this answer to our user mailing-list as this is a
question that other users could potentially have.</p>
<p>Best,<br>
Thibaut<br>
</p>

Dear Thibaut,
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">many thanks again for your precious answers. I
successfully created the geometry LUT, the geometry header, the
binary data file and the header data file. I executed castor
using my geometry and my data with this command</div>

<div class="">but after this it has been 3 hours and half more
or less. You told me that it would take time given our
geometry, but I don’t know if it is normal or not and I should
see some output to follow the status.</div>
