PURPOSE Awareness and training in medical physics (MP) is crucial to enhance productivity and safety in cancer management. We evaluated the impact of the pioneer teaching hospital in Nigeria on awareness and training in MP in an attempt to appraise a

Purpose Source strength (Sk), sizes of vaginal cylinder applicators (VCA), number of dwell positions (DPs), and the prescribed dose (D) are basic parameters in brachytherapy (BT) treatment planning contributing to total dwell time (TDT). This study w
OBJECTIVE: This study assessed bladder and rectal dose based on Cartesian-coordinates in intracavitary brachytherapy and examined the variations resulting from use of tandem-ring (T-R) of different angles. METHODS: Cartesian-co-ordinates of bladder a

Background: The role of Computed Tomography (CT) in the medical diagnosis of diseases has greatly expanded, despite the potential risk of cancer following exposures to ionising radiation (XRay) from this modality. This risk is particularly of great c

PURPOSE In-vivo measurements to determine doses to organs-at-risk can be an essential part of brachytherapy quality assurance (QA). This study compares calculated doses to the rectum with measured dose values as a means of QA in vaginal vault brachyt

Entrance surface dose (ESD) measurements have been carried out in Nigeria as part of the ongoing dose reduction programme. Thermoluminescence dosemeters (TLD) were used to measure skin entrance doses for four common radiographic views in three hospit

Iridium-192 is widely used for high-dose rate brachytherapy. Co-60 source with similar geometric and dosimetric properties are now available. It has a longer half life but higher energy than Iridium-192. If Co-60 source can produce similar results, i
