Abstract: We describe the modification of MANTIS for parallel simulation of imaging systems that can simultaneously utilize x-ray, charged particle, or optical photon primary and secondary radiation. We report on the computational aspects of the parallelization, on the generation of independent random number sub-sequences, and on the parallel timing performance.
