[Gate-users] Problem with attachVoxelPhantomSD

[Albert Hirtl]

Dear Colleagues,

I think I found  some kind of "solution" to my problem:

The command

/gate/hof_brain/attachVoxelPhantomSD

  works if I use the command

/gate/world/daughters/insert  regularMatrix

instead of

/gate/world/daughters/insert ImageRegularParametrisedVolume

But when reading the manual for GATE v7.0 
"ImageRegularParametrisedVolume " is recommended as far as I understand. 
I hope that by using "regularMatrix" I  still can conveniently read in 
CT images and translate HU into materials :-) .

However, does anybody know whats wrong by using 
"ImageRegularParametrisedVolume"?

Cheers,
Albert
