[Gate-users] GATEv5.00 voxelized phantom error

Hi all,


Thank you very much for your help!

And i am sorry, the code should be:
  /gate/world/daughters/insert       regularMatrix

Just one more newbie question regarding voxelized
phantoms. Is it possible to record the raw hits
informations (i.e., edep, time, position) that
occurred in the voxelized phantom? The way I understand
it, only volumes attached to the crystal-SD will
produce the hits informations in the root output
file. Would it also be possible to attach the
voxelized phantom to the crystal-SD? Because, I
tried this, and it did not work.

The /attachVoxelPhantomSD command will attach the
voxelized phantom to the sensitive detector, however,
the output file will only save the dose and uncertainty
at every voxel.

Cheers to GATE and GATE users!


Sincerely,

Jan Mickelle V. Maratas

>> Hello,

>> What's the difference in using regularMatrix and parametizedBoxMatrix?
Would it be okay if I will replace the:

>>     /gate/SPECThead/daughters/insert       regularMatrix?
