Hello gate-users,

I am having some trouble using the Zubal phantom with GATE.  Particularly,
according to the post below, I should convert to unsigned-int-16 but I don't
see that option in xmedcon:

Dear Dimitri,
you can use *zubal* phantom as a voxelised anthropomorphic phantom(it is free
) from Yale university. Or you can construct NCAT voxelised phantom that can
be downloaded from the Internet.
after this, you should convert your phantom to interfile format(uint 16) and
then follow the gate users guide to complete your simulation.

best regards

Under XMedcon->Options->Medcon->Pixels->Types

I only see "default", "Uint8" and "Int16" as options.  If I selected
"Int16", I see the following in the .h33 file generated:

!number format := signed integer^M
!number of bytes per pixel := 2^M
