Experimental images
RELION reads the following image file formats:
- MRC individual images (with extension
.mrc
) - MRC stacks (with extension
.mrcs
) (recommended) - SPIDER individual images (with extension
.spi
) - SPIDER stacks (with extension
.spi
)
Preparation of the images is explained on the Preprocess images page.
If no CTF-correction is to be performed inside RELION, then a stack of images may be used directly as input (command line option --i
). In that case, it is recommended that the images are CTF-phase flipped before refinement. If CTF-correction is to be performed inside RELION (recommended for cryo-data), then besides the images themselves, also metadata regarding the CTFs needs to be provided. In that case, the input to RELION is done using a STAR file (see below).
