Hi Castor developers and users,</div>

A few moths ago I got the code for saving the forward projections (castor-proj) and I have used this a lot to generate PET-data so far. </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
I try to manually put Gaussian blur over the sinogram data to simulate the poorer resolution of PET data by PSF. I want to do this by putting a Gaussian blur on every single 2D-sinogram. In order to do this, I need to understand how the sinogram datafile is
constructed and this has not become very clear to me yet. I know that every 16 bytes (for my data) describe one bin in the sinogram, but I don't know in what order this dat is stored and whether I can properly separate the sinograms here to apply Gaussian
blur. </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
Is it possible to provide more clarity on how the sinogram datafiles are constructed when formed with castor-proj?</div>
