An Analysis of Acquisition Dose in Male Mammography
Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.This retrospective study analysed 266 male breast imaging acquisitions across two Australian hospital sites, comparing radiation doses from full‐field digital mammography (FFDM) and digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT). DBT doses were significantly higher than FFDM, while FFDM glandular doses were lower than previously reported male and female cohorts ...

Magnetic Resonance Guided Radiation Therapy (MRgRT) Prostate Motion and Margins
Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.This study evaluated intra‐fractional prostate motion during MR‐guided radiotherapy to determine appropriate PTV margins for prostate cancer. Analysis of 18 patients resulted in calculated margins of 3.2 mm (AP), 1.7 mm (LR), and 3.2 mm (SI), supporting the potential for margin reduction with MRgRT. ABSTRACT Introduction Systematic and random errors in

Image Reject Patterns in Computed Radiography: Insights From a Ghanaian Radiology Department
Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.This study examined image rejection patterns in a computed radiography system at a tertiary hospital in Ghana. An overall reject rate of 16.5% was observed, exceeding recommended thresholds, with anatomical cut‐off and positioning errors being the most common causes.

Learning in radiation oncology: 12‐month experience with a new incident learning system
Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 63-73, March 2025.Introduction of an incident learning incident (ILS) was shown to have had a positive impact on reporting and safety culture within a local health district (LHD). Survey findings correlate with existing literature that ILSs are effective tools for improving patient safety and departmental safety facilitating quality improvement.
