<div>Hi All,</div> <div> </div> <div>Is there anybody know how to define the sources for a Derenzo-like resolution phantom created with quadrant repeaters by using GATE? </div> <div></div> I used macro below, but it gives error messages like volume you originally specified in /vis/scene/add/. ***** Illegal application state </gate/source/addSource rods1> ***** ***** Batch is interupted!! ***** What is wrong with this? How should I define the sources in a correct way ? Thank you for any kind of help and information in advance.
