Day 1: Customer uses inverse radon (or iradon in MATLAB terms) extensively for their back projection algorithms.  They would like to know when the iradon function will be available/supported in Jacket. AccelerEyes product management informs the customer that the inverse radon algorithm used in MATLAB is based on the filtered back …
