[Gate-users] actor dose calculation

[AliAsghar Parach]

Dear Frisson
how can I defined a voxelised source phantom in GATE6.0.0 with actor for
dose calculation?
my phantom is not in  terms of  HU but it's value is arbitrary I attribute
it. how can I define it in this case?
i defined it in terms of my range.dat and change it like as novice1 example
Hu2mat.txt but GATE gives the following error:

src/GateHounsfieldMaterialTable.cc (l.124): Current H1=1 is different from
previous H2=1. Abort.
and exit the simulation.

help to solve this problem.....

regards
