Patient Dose Optimisation of Abdominopelvic Protocols During X‐Ray Imaging

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
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).

Student Perceptions of the Implementation of Novel Sonography Phantoms in Radiography Curricula: A Mixed Methods Study

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Anthropomorphic sonography phantoms can assist radiography students with understanding the theoretical principles of sonography. We examined students' perceptions of participating in tutorials which required students to use four sonography phantoms.

Paediatric computed tomography diagnostic reference levels in Africa: A systematic review

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 139-147, March 2025.
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

Technique considerations for implementing volumetric‐modulated arc therapy for total body irradiation within an Australian tertiary institution

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 165-172, March 2025.
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 ...
