Graphical interface for designing geometries and processing DICOM images for PENELOPE

One of he most difficult steps when preparing a Monte Carlo calculation is the design of their geometries. Such process is an error-prone, time-consuming, and complex step for any simulation in the field of medical physics. The software VoxelMages has been developed to help the user in this complex task. It allows to design arbitrary geometries and to process DICOM image files for simulations with the general-purpose Monte Carlo code PENELOPE. Its main characteristics are described in the following.
