matRad_calcWaterEqD

Purpose ^

matRad function to calculate the equivalent densities from a dicom ct

Synopsis ^

function ct = matRad_calcWaterEqD(ct, pln)

Description ^

 matRad function to calculate the equivalent densities from a dicom ct 
 that originally uses intensity values

 call
   ct = matRad_calcWaterEqD(ct, pln)

 input
   ct: unprocessed dicom ct data which are stored as intensity values (IV)

       HU = IV * slope + intercept

   pln: matRad plan struct

 output
   ct: ct struct with cube with relative _electron_ densities
