This study guide will be a reliable support and easy-to-use source of information for students in the fields of dosimetry, physics, radiation oncology, and therapy as they progress through the educational levels in preparation for board examinations. The theoretical and practical knowledge gained by students on previous courses or in clinical settings is reinforced by means of almost 1200 questions and accompanying detailed analytical answers. In order to cater for the needs of all students, the questions are arranged according to three levels of difficulty. The level 1 questions are mainly intended for those hoping to pass the Medical Dosimetrist Certification Board (MDCB) exam but will also be beneficial for Medical Physics candidates taking written exams and for Radiation Oncology residents. The level II questions are in general clinically related and will be relevant for any student, while the level III questions are advanced and are especially suitable for American Board of Radiology candidates or those taking equivalent exams elsewhere in the world. The study guide is broken down into different subject areas, with provision of multiple questions and answers on each subject. In addition, the mathematical and physics questions include brief explanations of how the student can solve each problem. At the end of the guide, three practice tests are included with the same number of questions as are found in the MDCB exam. These tests will help students to test their knowledge and improve their test-taking speed.

A straightforward presentation of the broad concepts underlying radiological physics and radiation dosimetry for the graduate-level student. Covers photon and neutron attenuation, radiation and charged particle equilibrium, interactions of photons and charged particles with matter, radiotherapy dosimetry, as well as photographic, calorimetric, chemical, and thermoluminescence dosimetry. Includes many new derivations, such as Kramers X-ray spectrum, as well as topics that have not been thoroughly analyzed in other texts, such as broad-beam attenuation and geometrics, and the reciprocity theorem. Subjects are layed out in a logical sequence, making the topics easier for students to follow. Supplemented with numerous diagrams and tables.

The fields of radiation therapy and medical dosimetry have experienced advancements in recent years. One of the advancements has been in the educational requirements experienced by radiation therapists and medical dosimetrists. Certification is required to practice radiation therapy and medical dosimetry. This study will seek to determine if degree level has an impact on certification exam pass rates in radiation therapy and medical dosimetry. Objectives: This study sought to determine if degree level, geographic location, number of examinees, and JRCERT accreditation status are significant predictors of radiation therapy and medical dosimetry certification exam pass rates. Methodology: This study is a quantitative-correlational-retrospective study. The target population was all JRCERT accredited radiation therapy and medical dosimetry programs in the United States. Data was collected from the JRCERT, OMB, and programmatic websites. Multiple linear regression tests were used to analyze the data which was done by the statistical program SAS version 9.4. Results: The results showed that none of the parameters analyzed for medical dosimetry were significant predictors of medical dosimetry certification pass rates. For radiation therapy, accreditation status was found to be a significant predictor (p= 0.001) of radiation therapy certification exam rates. Conclusions: This study found that degree level, geographic location, and number examinees were not significant predictors of radiation therapy or medical dosimetry certification exam pass rates. For radiation therapy, it was determined that accreditation length was a significant predictor of radiation therapy certification exam pass rates and accounts for 15.16% of the variability of certification exam rates. None of the parameters analyzed for this study were significant predictors of medical dosimetry certification exam pass rates, however 21.93% of the variability of JRCERT accredited medical dosimetry programs is attributed to number of examinees. Keywords: radiation therapy, medical dosimetry, certification exam.
