BodyBuilder is a computer program for the generation of human
anthropomorphic phantoms of arbitrary age, from infant through
adult. Pregnant females, at 3, 6, and 9 months into gestation,
including fetal detail, are available. The phantom's sex may be
chosen, as well as which organs to include in the model. A graphical
user interface controls the selections and operation of the program.
Output is in the form of input files for the Monte Carlo N-Particle
program MCNP;
an alternative output file, containing visualization
attributes, facilitates imaging of the geometry by the Sabrina
graphics program. BodyBuilder is available for personal computers
running Windows95 and later.
