[Gate-users] compresseMatrix voxellized phantom

[kangh at mskcc.org]

Hello,

I am trying to simulate a voxelized phantom using with compressed voxel
(variable-size voxels).  Here is the macro file I am try to run

# V O X E L I Z E D  M A T R I X   H O F F M A N   B R A I N   P H A N T
O M


/gate/world/daughters/name hof_brain
#/gate/world/daughters/insert parameterizedBoxMatrix
/gate/world/daughters/insert compressedMatrix
/gate/hof_brain/compression/excludeList Lung Adipose Water Muscle Heart
Liver SpineBone Bone
/gate/hof_brain/geometry/insertReader interfile
/gate/hof_brain/interfileReader/insertTranslator range
/gate/hof_brain/interfileReader/rangeTranslator/readTable range_CT.dat
/gate/hof_brain/interfileReader/rangeTranslator/describe 1
/gate/hof_brain/interfileReader/readFile  m000-newptCTscan.h33
/gate/hof_brain/placement/setTranslation  0. 0. 0. mm
/gate/hof_brain/placement/setRotationAxis 1 0 0
/gate/hof_brain/placement/setRotationAngle 0 deg
/gate/hof_brain/attachVoxelPhantomSD
/gate/hof_brain/addOutput doseOutput
/gate/output/doseOutput/saveUncertainty true
/gate/output/doseOutput/setFileName hof_brain_paraDose.bin
 
The blue command lines are added as in the user guide manual on p. 89.

When I ran the macro file I have gotten the following error message.

/control/execute VoxelizedPhantom.mac
/gate/world/daughters/name hof_brain
/gate/world/daughters/insert compressedMatrix
I/O warning : failed to load external entity "Materials.xml"
   GateMaterialDatabase: did not find the Materials.xml file: no
properties read for material 'Vacuum'
     This is only a problem when OPTICAL PHOTONS are transported in this
material.'
/gate/hof_brain/compression/excludeList Lung Adipose Water Muscle Heart
Liver SpineBone Bone
***** COMMAND NOT FOUND </gate/hof_brain/compression/excludeList Lung
Adipose Water Muscle Heart Liver SpineBone Bone> *****

***** Batch is interupted!! *****



It seems that GATE does not understand the command
/gate/hof_brain/compression/excludeList Lung Adipose Water Muscle Heart
Liver SpineBone Bone.
I tried to look for any example to use compressedMatrix in the user talk
archive but I could not find one.  

Could anyone tell me what I did wrong?

Thanks,

Hyejoo
