A standard Geant4 example CMakeLists.txt is provided.
Setup for analysis:
By default, the example has no analysis component.
To compile and use the application with the analysis on, build the example with the following command:
cmake -DWITH_ANALYSIS_USE=ON -DGeant4_DIR=/path/to/Geant4_installation /path/to/brachytherapy_example
The installation of ROOT is required (http://root.cern.ch/drupal/).

The scoring mesh is used to calculate the energy deposition in the plane containing the source (z=0 plane)
integrated over the whole run. The scoring mesh is defined in the input macro files.

he default output format of the scoring is changed in the class BrachyUserScoreWriter.
The default output format of the scoring is changed in the class BrachyUserScoreWriter.
The scoring mesh is fixed with a size of 20.025 cm along x and y. The bin size is 0.25 mm along x, y and z.
When running in interactive mode there is no scoring mesh.The user has to add it with appropriate UI
