[Gate-users] source definition for a Derenzo-like resolution phantom created with quadrant repeaters

[sebnem erturk]

Hi All,

Is there anybody  know how to define the sources for a Derenzo-like
resolution phantom created with quadrant  repeaters by using GATE?

I used macro below, but it gives error messages like

  volume you originally specified in /vis/scene/add/.
***** Illegal application state </gate/source/addSource rods1> *****

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

What is wrong with this?

How should I define the sources in a correct way ?

Thank you for any kind of help and information in advance.

Regards,
