[Gate-users] How to import NCAT phantom to Gate (NCAT phantom with ECAT PET)

[강한규]

Dear Jalil,
 
I have an experience in importing NCAT phantom into GATE before.
 
Attached is the manual how to use NCAT phantom with an ECAT PET system in GATEv6.2 (not vGATE).
(I'm sorry that the manual was written in Korean.) 

The NCAT phantoms (activity and attenuation bin files) are located on the "data" folder.(slide#8-9) 
The "rangeTranslator" was used for the mapping of the voxel value of the NCAT phantom to radioactivity (slide#10) and material type (slide#11). 
 
The voxelized NCAT phantom (atn.bin) was imported by using "regularMatrix" command.(slide#20)
The voxelized NCAT source (acti.bin) was imported by using "RTVPhantom" command.(slide#25-26)
 
Hopefully, the manual would be helpful for your research work. 
 
If you have any question, please let me know.

Best regards,

Dear vGate users,
 
Could someone please guide me on how to import the NCAT phantom files (XX_atn_av.bin and XX_act_av.bin) to the vGate phantom.mac without transferring to interfile and/or analyze format? in other words, how to prepare a phantom.mac with the files?
Regards
Jalil
