<div dir="auto">It really depends on if it's truly just a fluence per area that you're looking for; and it also has a lot to do with the particles and energy range that may be passing through said region of interest. Are you collecting info on primary particles
or secondary ones? Are you simply wanting to count the amount of particles and energy that past through a given area, or are you interested in energy deposited in a certain volume? I should be able to help more if I have a better idea of what you're looking
at.
