[Gate-users] SPECT with Technetium 99m

[Park MinJae]

Dear Anne,

You just can use using gamma ray for the energy type.

For Tc-99m...

particle gamma
energytype Mono
monoenergy 140. keV
setForcedHalfLife 6 h

I guess, you got an error because of misspelling 'particule' on roby.mac.

Cordially yours,
MJ
