See document in attachment for the mac file.
The geometry part is basically a SPECT system (1 detector+collimator), 1
aluminum shell around it and 1 water cylinder in the FOV.
The missing parameters are:
/control/alias tracerActivity 185000000.0
/control/alias detEnergyReference 122.
/control/alias simTime 60.
