Patient Dose Optimisation of Abdominopelvic Protocols During X‐Ray Imaging
This study evaluates organ doses in abdominopelvic radiography for both erect and supine positions, addressing dose optimisation concerns in Ghana. Using CalDose X and thermoluminescence dosimeters, organ doses and image quality were analysed, revealing significant dose reductions with optimised exposure parameters (70 kVp, 10 mAs, 110 cm FDD).

Paediatric computed tomography diagnostic reference levels in Africa: A systematic review
Improvements in computed tomography (CT) technology have increased its applications in medical imaging. Variations in the paediatric DRLs indicate that harmonisation and standardisation of paediatric CT protocols are essential for the optimisation of paediatric doses. Abstract Introduction Improvements in computed tomography (CT) technology in terms of

In 2020, our institution transitioned to the Eclipse™ treatment planning system and to Truebeam® linear accelerators with 6 MV and 10 MV energies. The linear accelerators were installed in smaller bunkers that could not accommodate 400 cm FAD. A multidisciplinary team within the institution was created to evaluate existing total body irradiation ...
