|---|---|
| The simulations of PET scanners are done in GATE software (Jan et al.2004) which extensively uses GEANT4. This versatile package offers the possibility of simulation of radioactive source decays. It allows tracking of the individual ? events resulting after positron-electron annihilation. They can be absorbed by photoelectric event in the detector crystal or scattered in the phantom. It allows also simulation of detector electronics including paralyzed mode of the amplifiers. Coincidences can be monitored if they are true or random. The software is now available in version 6.1. Part of the simulations were performed in version 3.0, part in vGate 1.0 (containing version 6.0 via virtualization software for Linux). | |
