Tomographic Emission Application for Tumor Dosage Calculation in Cuban Hospitals

Geant4 Application for Tomographic Emission: Developing treatment plans, acquiring new equipment, and investing in Oncology institutions in Cuba for dose calculation on tumors. This project involves the installation, configuration, and benchmarking of a Cylindrical PET system for small animal imaging using various isotopes. Next steps include running real cases, web access, and enabling parallel job execution in GATE.
