[Gate-users] GATEv5.00 voxelized phantom error

Hi,

As it was explained by Simon, parameterizedBoxMatrix is an obsolete 
method in the code (we must note this point in the users Guide....sorry).
The uptodate method (regarding the computing time and validation) is the 
regularMatrix.

Cheers
Sebastien
