5 months ago Which branch are you using exactly at the moment?
It is indeed due to the 6th column. The 6th column stores objectives for planning / optimization, and matRad will use only targets with an objective (i.e. a prescription) to generate the spot grid. Here you see the condition with ~isempty.
The V will be later used to identify target voxels, and will in your case stay empty.
I don't know if this is the best idea to already consider the optimization objectives here, or maybe we should have a special case when no objective is set or at least throw a more descriptive error.
A short workaround for you is to just assign an objective to your structure "target":
cst{3,6}{1} = struct(DoseObjectives.matRad_SquaredDeviation(1000,60));
This one prescribes 60 Gy in n fractions (depending on what you have set in pln.numOfFractions) with a weight of 1000 to the 3rd VOI (which is a target in your list). We turn Objectives into structs usually for Octave-compatible *.mat files, but the struct conversion is not strictly necessary.

Hello, first of all, thank you very much for your last help in importing nii format data into matRad. However, I recently encountered some errors while using this data. When running matRad_example5_protons.m, an error occurred at the statement stf = matRad_generateStf(ct,cst,pln); matRad: Generating stf struct... Error using matRad_generateStf (line 135) Could not find target. I checked the difference between my cst data and the example cst data, and found that the sixth column of data used in the example was not present when importing with matRad_importPatient.m. However, it seems that this column of data is necessary for finding the target in matRad_generateStf.m. Therefore, I would like to ask how I should import and set this part of the data?
