Low energy compact cyclotrons for Positron emission tomography (PET) are needed for the production of radio-isotope. In the magnet design for those cyclotrons, single particle tracking simulation after the design is important to check the quality of designed magnetic field of the magnet. The study of single particle tracking simulation for cyclotron magnet is shown in this paper. Maximum beam energy of example cyclotron is 9 MeV for proton and pseudo accelerating gap is adapted for the simulation. 3D CAD program CATIA P3 V5 R18 is used for design the magnet and pseudo accelerating gap. All magnetic and electric field calculations had been performed by OPERA-3D TOSCA and the own-made program OPTICY is used for other calculations - phase slip, radial and axial tune.
