and thereby re-run the INTEGRATE and CORRECT steps. This has the advantage that the refined geometry parameters (from CORRECT) are recycled into INTEGRATE, which sometimes leads to better R-factors. It also results in the spacegroup's restraints on the unit cell parameters being used for the prediction of spot positions; these are therefore slightly more accurate.

It also results in the spacegroup's restraints on the unit cell parameters being used for the prediction of spot positions; these are therefore slightly more accurate. Fine-slicing of profiles has been found to be advantageous at least for Pilatus detectors ([http://dx.doi.org/10.1107/S0907444911049833 Müller, Wang and Schulze-Briese (2012), Acta Cryst D68, 42]), but this should not be specific for Pilatus.
