What's Causing Phantom Scan Reconstruction Errors in NRecon?

So, my lab started doing some MicroCT scans, and they designed me to learn and try to solve some problems. The first issue that I noticed by doing some research both in some papers and in the manual from Bruker, it's that they tried to quantify the "BMD" without using the Phantom rods. So they did the scan for the phantom.

But now, everytime I try to reconstruct the phantom scan on the NRecon, it shows the message in the image linked on the post.

Does anyone knows what is causing this or how to fix this issue?

It appears you've selected too small an angle ie < 7.5 degrees so the process failed to generate a data file needed for the next process. That process failed when it couldn't find the file.

I would contact the Bruker company about the error or look on their website to see if they have answered the same question using the error text as part of your search.

What are the common issues faced when setting up a new Micro CT scanner?

Common issues include software installation errors, hardware compatibility problems, calibration difficulties, and inadequate training for operators. Ensuring all components are correctly installed and compatible with each other is crucial, as is proper calibration and training.

How can software installation errors be resolved during the setup of a Micro CT scanner?

Software installation errors can often be resolved by ensuring that the system meets all the necessary requirements, such as operating system compatibility and sufficient hardware resources. Reinstalling the software, updating drivers, and checking for any patches or updates from the manufacturer can also help.

What steps should be taken if the Micro CT scanner is not producing accurate images?

If the Micro CT scanner is not producing accurate images, it is important to check the calibration settings and ensure that the scanner is properly calibrated. Additionally, verify that the sample is correctly positioned and that the imaging parameters are appropriately set. Consulting the user manual or contacting technical support may also be necessary.

How important is operator training in the successful setup and use of a Micro CT scanner?

Operator training is crucial for the successful setup and use of a Micro CT scanner. Proper training ensures that the operators understand how to use the equipment correctly, interpret the results accurately, and troubleshoot common issues. Many problems can be avoided or quickly resolved with adequate training.

What should be done if there is a hardware compatibility issue with the new Micro CT scanner?

If there is a hardware compatibility issue, first verify that all components meet the manufacturer's specifications. Check for any firmware updates for the hardware and ensure that all connections are secure. If the issue persists, contacting the manufacturer or a technical support specialist for assistance may be necessary.
