A Student Project to use Geant4 Simulations for a TMS‐PET combination

2007 
Geant4 is one of the most powerful tools for MC simulation of detectors and their applications. We present a student project to simulate a combined Transcranial Magnetic StimulationPositron Emission Tomography (TMS‐PET) system using Geant4. This project aims to study PET‐TMS systems by implementing a model for the brain response to the TMS pulse and studying the simulated PET response. In order to increase the speed of the simulations we parallelise our programs and investigate the possibility of using GRID computing.
