Hello
I am trying to simulate a PETscanner. I don't have any coincidence
although I have singles. I don't know if in a PETscanner I have to put
all levels from one to four or if there are optional. I need only one
level but I put the others in order to have coincidence root output,
but i didn't succeed . I wonder if someone could tell me what is wrong
If I do the same with a cylindricalPET and a box shape, I have
coincidences.
I would really appreciate your help.
Thank you very much.
