CANCER DISEASE - Saving Lives with Ionizing Radiations
Cancer involves a pathological breakdown in the processes controlling cell proliferation, differentiation and death of particular cells. As I, many medical physicists work in the fight against cancer, using tools of medical imaging and radiotherapy (radiation therapy). While medical imaging deals with diagnosis (CT scan, mammography, X-rays (radiography),... echography (US), nuclear medicine, MRI, etc.), radiation therapy uses radiation’s cell-killing properties to kill cancer while sparing healthy tissues. This is connected to the practice of treatment planning and dosimetry, the calculation and assessment of how much radiation dose is absorbed by the human body. In radiation oncology, medical physicists are involved in the treatment of a wide range of patients, from skin cancer to total body irradiation, breast, lung, liver and prostate patients applying sophisticated technology.
Welcome to my website, the world of Medical Radiation Physics!
My name is BOGMIS Aaron Innocent.
- I am a Medical Radiation Physicist, I did my Residency program (Clinical Training) in Radiotherapy in two Belgian hospitals: André Vésale hospital of the CHU of Charleroi and the Jules Bordet Institute of Brussels in 2020 - 2021.
- I am also an Analytical Laboratories Scientist and a Laboratory Quality Management Engineer.
This website is my personal expression area which will be serving as a platform for consultancy in medical radiation physics (images analysis and processing, radiation therapy, physical and clinical dosimetry, radiation protection, nuclear medicine), a platform from which I can share useful information in scientific areas such as scientific computation, etc. I will not in general focus on the theory that interested readers can find in books of many sources, instead, I will be presenting the practical aspects:
- how to code (write programs) in physics in particular atomic, nuclear, particles and medical physics using
- C++ (with emphasis on the latest standards C++20);
- ROOT/cern;
- MATLAB;
- FORTRAN;
- PYTHON.
- how to write or how to implement a Monte Carlo code (TRIPOLI, Fluka, Geant4, MCNP, Serpent) in languages such as Matlab; C++20; Python; etc.
- how to simulate in physics using:
- Origin (e.g. ESR spectra);
- Monte Carlo: PENELOPE, PRIMO, Geant4, Serpent, Fluka, MCNP, ...
- how to write scientific publications, reports, thesis, etc. using the powerful LaTeX and in particular,
- how to write equations and formulas (mathematics) in LateX.
- how to program in R when clinical studies, statistics or biostatistics for example are involved, etc.
- All these aspects and much more will be progressively developed in this website.
Above all, this website is dedicated to RADIOTHERAPY also called RADIATION THERAPY and in some extends to RADIOLOGY. It is my ambition to bring my contribution in the improvement of radiation therapy treatment, in making sure that each patient is provided with the highest quality treatment possible. Radiotherapy is one of the main treatments for cancer, used in 50% of cancer treatments. It is also a multi-disciplinary field of research, mostly involving medicine, computer science, physics and mathematics.
Maybe the most important thing to add here is that when creating this websi-te, my first thoughts were for medical physics stu-dents.
I remembered all these dif-ficulties graduate students of Medical Physics face for example in solving exerci-ses and problems related to particles physics; quan-tum physics; interaction of ionizing radiations with mat-ter; dosimetry; nuclear me-dicine; physics of medical imaging; etc. and all the mathematics behind it.
So, I decided to share my experience and skills that graduate students need to tackle problems of medical radiation physics. All these subjects and much more are presented by section, and I do present step by step ways and methodo-logies to solve problems (analytically = by hand) and where necessary, I do show how to solve these kind of problems numeri-cally (e.g. using a progra-mming language such as Matlab; R; C++; Python).
I am wishing graduate students of Medical Phy-sics to find useful informa-tion here that might help them to progress in their studies. I would have lo-ved to find such a website when I was an MSc' stu-dent in Medical Physics, but, I've not been so lucky.
To emphasize this by an example: many reference books solve 1000s problems and exercises in say interaction of ionizing radiations with matter: when dealing with stopping power or Bethe Bloch equation, methods and solutions are presented in a very simplest way (without using integrals for example) while integrals are presented in the course / lectures and books. It is the same situation for nuclear medicine, etc. I have faced that situation like many other students. How come lectures and books are presented with very complex mathematics, but the selected solved problems are presented so simply without the use of the same complex mathematics? I have never been satisfied with that, so I decided to go through all that and to learn how to solve problems of physics in Medical Physics as a graduate student using all necessary advanced mathematics tools. That is the reason why I believe the content of this website could be extremely helpful for graduate students in Medical Physics. They will find here in one place methods and techniques that I missed when I was myself an MSc' student in Medical Physics.
On this website then, you will find
- my CV,
- background information on
- radiotherapy,
- medical imaging,
- dosimetry,
- radiobiology,
- nuclear medicine,
- radiation protection,
- computational mathematics involved in all these,
- computational physics of all these themes,
- coding / programming,
- medeling,
- Monte Carlo simulation,
- etc.
All these themes and much more are detailed below.
