Hi,
The first input of JosephForwardProjectionImageFilter is the image in which
you'll calculate the DRR, typically an empty projection (filled with
zeros). In your code, this is computed with constantImageSource but you're
setting the volume origin, spacing size which is probably wrong. For an
Elekta projection (you showed an Elekta drawing), this would be
constantImageSource.SetOrigin( [-204.4,-204.4,0] )
constantImageSource.SetSpacing( [0.8,0.8,0.8] )
constantImageSource.SetSize( [512, 512,1]  )
Besides, for the CT volume you sent, point (0,0,0) mm is not in the image
and this is the default center of rotation in RTK (see doc
<http://www.openrtk.org/Doxygen/DocGeo3D.html>). Moreover the orientation
is wrong. So either you change the origin and the direction to use RTK
convention or you build your geometry differently, e.g. by setting source
center, detector origin position and detector u v coordinates:
geometry.AddProjection([-57.,20.+sid,25.],[-57+115.,20.+sid-sdd
,25.],[1.,1.,0.],[0.,0.,1.])
where the coordinates (-57,28,25) are those of a point somewhere in the
center of the patient. This will give you line integrals, I don't know what
is the content of your png file but you might have to take the exponential
to have something close to real data. you also have to add 1000 to yourCT
numbers to put air at 0.
In short, read the geometry doc and don't expect us to be able to match
exactly the DRR you sent... This will require some work on your side
Cheers,
Simon
