Measuring the backscatter radiation in a neonative intensive care unit (NICU) Erik den Boer Supevisor: Dr. Entesar Dalah (College of Health Science) Co-supervisors: Dr. Abdulmunhem Obaideen (Radiology Dept., University Hospital Sharjah) & Dr. Walid Metwally (College of Engineering)

About me Nationality : Dutch University of origin: Qualification: BSc in Aerospace Eng., MSc in Biomedical Eng. Specialization: Medical Physics

My UoS Experience Departments: Medical Diagnostic Imaging (College of Health Science) Nuclear Engineering (College of Engineering) Medical Diagnostic Imaging (University Hospital Sharjah) Project: Measuring the backscatter radiation in an NICU Modeling: using Monte Carlo, build problem model Measurements: Measurement backscatter radiation in UHS to validate the model Write scientific article about findings

Monte Carlo Setup

Modeling setup Monte Carlo N-Particle code (MCNP5) Main inputs: Phantom model Incubator and environment Source specification

Monte Carlo Model What is 21 and 49

NICU room and incubator Model

Experiment Setup

Radiation Backscatter Measurements Radiology Department of University Hospital of Sharjah

My experience so far Independent work Combining theory/modeling and practical work Supervisors are experts in their fields + Very educational experience…

But plenty of time for fun too!

Thank you…
