Medical Radiation Physics

Cancer involves a pathological breakdown in the processes which control 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 scanner, radiography (X-rays), mammography,... echography (ultrasounds), 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 treat a wide range of patients, from skin cancer to total body irradiation, breast, lung, liver and prostate patients applying sophisticated technology.

Welcometo my website, the world of Medical Radiation Physics!

My name is BOGMIS Aaron Innocent.

- I am a Medical Radiation Physicist.

- I am also 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, 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/C++; ROOT/cern; MATLAB; FORTRAN; PYTHON.
how to simulate in physics using Matlab; Origin (e.g. ESR spectra), Monte Carlo: Fluka, GEANT4,
how to write scientific publications, reports, thesis, etc. using LaTeX. In particular,
how to write mathematics and equations in LateX.
how to program in R when clinical studies 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. It is my ambition to contribute in the improve-ment 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 treat-ments. It is also a multi-disciplinary field of research, mostly involving medicine, physics, mathematics, and computer science.
