| dc.description.abstract | The objective of this study was aimed at determining the Entrance Surface Dose (ESD) in adult patients in selected radiology centers in Lagos state that is six selected radiology centers with seven x-ray machines. ESD is a very important parameter used in determining diagnostic reference levels. This was achieved by the use of human surrogates (phantoms) of different thickness such as PMMA, Rex Phantom and Copper phantom and detector known as diavolt was used to measured dose in µGy, the output kVp and the x ray exposure time in seconds | en_US |
