title	For Samples larger than the FOV:

For Samples larger than the FOV:

Mount sample on GTS
Set GTS Rotation to 0 degrees
Use GTS X to move the specimen until one side aligns with the edge of the FOV.
Record the GTS X position
Use GTS X to move the sample in the opposite direction until the other edge aligns with the FOV.
Record the 2nd GTS X Position.
Calculate the centre of these two points and enter the value into GTS X.
Set GTS Rotation to 90 degrees.
Repeat steps 3 to 7 using GTS Z motion.
Once sample is centred along X and Z axis the sample will be on the COR.

Optimising your imaging quality

No of projections is Pixel dimensions x π/2
Flat field ideally should be 35K count, contrast between brightest and darkest feature in sample should be around 20%
For stitching multiple tomography scans leave at least 10-20% overlap.
