We present our newly developed Python code DUSTER for computation of the dust particles trajectories in a star-disk system. The flow of matter in and above a thin protoplanetary accretion disk is introduced in the code as an initial condition, taken from a numerical simulation or analytical model. Such a flow is then used as a stationary background for the computation of grain particles trajectories with DUSTER, with the inclusion of radiation pressure. As the DUSTER output, the final distribution of particles with respect to the star is presented in histograms.
