INVESTIGATION OF THE EFFECT OF RADIATION EXPOSURE ON PATIENT DURING XRAY SCANNING AT MALAM AMINU KANO TEACHING HOSPITAL (AKTH), KANO STATE
Abstract
ABSTRACT
This study investigates the effects of radiation exposure on patients during X-ray scanning at Malam Aminu Kano Teaching Hospital (AKTH), Kano State. It aims to assess the radiation doses patients receive during diagnostic X-rays and evaluate potential health risks associated with exposure. By analyzing patient data and radiation levels, the research provides insights into the safety measures in place and recommends strategies to minimize radiation exposure, ensuring patient safety during X-ray procedures. The findings contribute to enhancing radiological practices in healthcare.
