<div dir="ltr"><div>Thank you both for the response. Based on the GATE user guide, it looks like the root file can only be used for 1D and 2D distributions. When I try to get a 3D dose distribution by changing /gate/actor/doseDistribution/save to a .txt file, it looks like I only get dose along the direction of beam propagation. Can I create ASCII or other Octave-friendly files that will give me the dose to a volume? Or is there a way to create a series of 2D ASCII files that I can combine to make a 3D volume?<br><br></div>Thanks! <br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Dec 28, 2016 at 9:29 AM, Steve Hupcher <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:shupcher@gmail.com" target="_blank">shupcher@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div><div><div>Hi,<br><br></div>I am looking to use Octave to analyze 3D dose distributions instead of ROOT since I am much more familiar in a Matlab/Octave environment than C++.
