<p>Dear GATE-users,</p>
<p>Please, I have designed my simulation to mimic clinical CT scanner settings where you can have gantry rotation and object translation. From what I know increasing runs or number of projections should increase the dose for circular or helical rotation. I
did a quick test using different projections thinking of getting different dose/Edep results but the dose/Edep results remain the same irrespective of the number of projections. Below are the two different runs/projections I tested on.</p>

<p>Please, has anyone experienced this before or what am I doing wrong. Need help or some explanations. Thanks</p>
