This study included 64 patients (90.6% females and 9.4% male) in the age range between 13 - 81 years, with 43.8% of them in age group 31- 48 years 14.58 years. The study was done using two methods for dose ±and mean of 37.25calibration, gamma camera planar system with pinhole collimator and dose calibrator at distance of 5...
Abstract Objective of this study is to study the breast lesions using mammography and ultrasonography. Participants were a consecutive sample of 50 female patients aged between 20 to 90 years old, all had breast lesions. 40 of 50 patients have been examined by mammography followed by ultrasongraphy exam, 10 patients had been examined by ultrsonograhy only; because of aged less than 35 years, pregnant or lactating, those can’t do a mammography. Data were analyzed using simple excel program ...

ABSRACT Bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranean L.) is a protein rich legumes, with food security potential. The nine (9) accessions of the Bambara Groundnut were obtained from ational Centre for Genetic Resources and Biotechnology (I'TACGRAB) Ibadan, Oyo State Nigeria. These were accessed for their genetic and phylogenic relatedness through electrophoresis of the seed's proteins. Protein characterization with standard gel marker revealed that the 9 accessions contained proteins (Bovine Serum ...

ABSTRACT To determine the liver CT number among Sudanese people using spiral CT. A designed data sheet was used to collect data from 50 patients refer to CT abdomen , which was done using images of slice thickness (5mm) and slice gap (7-10mm) , three readings were taken from three points in axial cuts. The mean CT number of liver among the males was found to be 57.24±7.98 HU , and that among females was 56.19±10.77 the mean different was found to be 1.05 which was statically insignificant ...

ABSTRACT. This work seeks to find a way in which lateritic soil within Ota, Ogun State of Nigeria could be use in the production of hollow sandcrete blocks. This replacement is intended to observe the effect of lateritic soil on the strength characteristic when employed in the production of sandcrete blocks. It was deduced from past works that the inclusion of lateritic soil in sandcrete block production will produce a lesser quality blocks but this work seeks to find the maximum permissibl...

However, foreign construction firms dominate the Nigerian construction market on account of managerial and technological capabilities in which for...
ABSTRACT The versatility in-use of concrete for buildings and other infrastructures of necessity made concrete an important element of construction. Yet failure of concrete occurs more frequently at construction stage even when it seemed that mix ratio and design load calculations are adequate. This therefore suggests a missing gap in specification and the production of good site concrete. Literature survey confirms poor quality of concrete and use of sub-standard materials of concrete in th...

ABSTRACT In the last few years devastating flash floods descending downstream through valleys have occurred in East Nile Locality-Sudan. A flash flood can be caused by intense rain, particularly when it takes place in a saturated area where rain has previously fallen. Under these conditions the additional rain runs off over the surface and accumulates in streams and channels at a much accelerated pace. Runoff is the one of the components consists of water cycle and useful water resources to ...
