[Gate-users] Gate material soft tissue & root files

[Jenny Nilsson]

Hello Ana,

About question 2. You already got a good answer on how to use root for analysis. If you would like to use another program, this link shows how to convert the data in a root-file to a .txt. file for further analysis:

HI Ana,

(1) For the definition of the SoftTissue (depends on the organ of interest), you would need to find a reference paper with the SoftTissue
(brain, liver,....) properties. As an example, in case of optical imaging, I gathered a list of papers:
http://wiki.opengatecollaboration.org/index.php/Users_Guide_V7.0:Generating_and_tracking_optical_photons#Bibliography

What you need depends on the physics you are simulating.

(2) When you have a root output file, you can use the TTree::MakeClass method from ROOT which generates a skeleton class designed to loop over the entries of a tree from your root file. Some info here: http://root.cern.ch/download/doc/ROOTUsersGuideHTML/ch12s21.html
and here as well: http://v-cuplov.net/root-analysis/

Hope this helps,
vesna

Hello Gate-users,

I wonder If anyone could help me! It was very important!!

I have two questions:

(1) Does anyone could tell me what is the definition for material 'SoftTissue'  to add to the material txt file?
(2) How can I "read" or "analyse" what is inside root file(output)?

Thank you very much!

Regards
