[gate-users] voxelised source

[Julia Trummer]

Hi Justin!

I converted my ncat file with Matlab from folat to unsigned integer. And
then with xmedcon to the interfile format.
What puzzles me is the error that unsigned integer is an unrecognized
type name. Any ideas?

Not sure what the conversion that you used did exactly, but gate can
only read integer values for phantoms- NCAT output is float 32. When I
used it, I had to use something to convert to integer values.
