+Computed Tomography is the process of acquiring X-ray data (projections)
+though an object and then using mathematics to reconstruct the interior
+of that object.
+
+\chapter{Installation}
+\subsection{Requirements}
+\begin{itemize}
+ \item Running CTSim
+ \begin{itemize}
+ \item Apache or other CGI compatible web server
+
+ \item Perl (version 4.0 or higher)
+
+ \item A client web browser than can display PNG files. Most
+ current web browswer do support PNG.
+
+ \end{itemize}
+ \item Building CTSim
+ \begin{itemize}
+ \item zlib Library (optional)
+ \par Used for PNG file export.
+
+ \item libpng Library (optional)
+ \par Used for PNG file export.
+ \par www.libpng.org
+
+ \item FFTW library (optional)
+ \par Used for frequency-based filtering
+ \par www.fftw.org
+
+ \item dmalloc library (optional)
+ \par Used for debugging memory allocation
+ \par www.dmalloc.com
+
+ \item wxWindows library (optional) \par Used for
+ platform-independent graphical interface. The graphical-shell
+ program {\tt ctsim} requires this library. \par www.wxwindows.org
+
+ \end{itemize}

+\chapter{The Programs}
+
+\section{ctsim - The Graphical User Interface}
+\ctsim\ is the graphical shell for the CTSim project. It is
+written using the wxLibrary for cross-platform compatibility with GTK,
+Motif, and Microsoft Windows.
+
+\ctsim\ incorporates most of the capabilities of the CTSim
+project. There are still functions that are only available to the
+command line tools.
+
+\subsection{Usage}
+ctsim [OPTIONS] [files to open...]
+
+\ctsim\ can open projection files and image files.
+
+\section{The Web Browser CGI Interface}
+\subsection{Overview}
+The CGI program {\tt ctsim.cgi} takes projections of a standard
+phantom object, performs reconstruction, and then compares the
+rasterized phantom object with the reconstruction. The comparison is
+performed both visually by an image subtraction as well as by standard
+statistics as described by Herman\cite{HERMAN80}.
+
+\section{tools - The Command Line Interface}
+\subsection{phm2pj}
+Converts a phantom object to a set of projections
+
+{\tt phm2pj} simulates the process of collection of X-Ray projection data
+such as collected by a CT scanner.
+
+\subsection{pjrec}
+
+\subsection{phm2if}
+
+\section{Function Parameters}
+\subsection{Collection Projections}
+\begin{itemize}
+ \item Phantom
+ Select which phantom to collect projections
+
+ \item Geometry
+ \begin{itemize}
+ \item Parallel
+ \item Equiangular
+ \item Equilinear
+ \end{itemize}
+
+ \item Number of Detectors
+
+ \item Number of Views
+
+ \item Number of Samples Per Detector
+
+\end{itemize}
+
+\subsection{Reconstruct Image From Projections}
+\begin{itemize}
+ \item Filter
+ Selects which filter to apply to each projection. To
+ properly reconstruct an image, the should be multiplied
+ by the absolute value of distance from zero frequency.
+
+ \item Filter Parameter
+ \item Filter Method
+ \item Filter Generation
+ \item Interpolation
+ \item Backprojection
+ \item Zeropad
+ \item Preinterpolation Factor
+\end{itemize}
