Abstract:
:Radiation dose monitoring for radiography students during clinical training is necessary to demonstrate the extent of radiation protection issues present, as well as to instill in them an awareness of safe practices that they will carry with them throughout their careers. The study assess the radiation dose incurred by the undergraduate during clinical training. 312 students were monitored using (thermoluminescence dosimetry) between 2009 and 2015. The results establish that the radiation dose received by the students is well below the dose recommended by national and international authorities. Findings indicate that the dose did not reach the value of 1 mSv, which indicate that current radiation protection measures are acceptable and there was no risk of overexposure, as well as reinforces the importance of nuturing a culture of radiation protection and provides evidence to students that their future as professionals will be a safe one.
