Simulation study of fluorescence lifetime measurement for cancer detection

The project is about simulating the detection of early stage of cancer using the fluorescence lifetime simulations. Monte Carlo simulation is used for cancer detection. By modifying the code of the given simulation, the fluorescence lifetime can be calculated. After the code has been modified, t...
