How to repair a corrupted file system (NTFS)

ntfspartitioning

Recently I resized my D: partition, which is about 350 GB large and formatted as NTFS. I resized it with GParted on Ubuntu and I got and error saying

Current NTFS volume size is bigger than the device size
Corrupt partition table or incorrect device partitioning?

And now I cannot access it and the system keep saying that the filesystem is corrupted. I have tried making a backup of the actual state of drive now but I got an error while doing that with Clonezilla. I want to try repairing that with testdisk but I am afraid of losing the data on this partition completely.

Do you have any other ideas how to do this?

Testdisk lets you recover the data to another drive so you should be ok to run it.
