%                 projection(data3d,param)
% -------------------------------------------------------------------------
%     DESCRIPTION:
%     This function calculates for each detector pixel, which voxel is
%     associated with that pixel in the specific projection. That is done 
%     for all angles specified.
%     The geometry is for DBT with half cone-beam. All parameters are set 
%     in "ParameterSettings" code. 
%  
%     INPUT:
% 
%     - data3d = 3D volume for projection 
%     - param = Parameter of all geometry
%     - projNumber = Vector with projections numbers to be processed
%
%     OUTPUT:
% 
%     - proj = projection for each angle.
