WELCOME MESSAGE FROM ARN EDUCATION COMMITTEE (EDUCOM)
The current Education Committee (EDUCOM) of the Association of Radiographers of Nigeria (ARN) was constituted by the President of the ARN in January 2017, and with the following members:
1. Adejoh, Tom (M.Sc) - NAUTH, Nnewi; Clinical Radiographer
2. Joseph, Z. Dlama (M.Sc) – ATBUTH, Bauchi; Clinical Radiographer
3. Balogun-Adebiyi I. Rohimat (B.Sc)– NOHI, Lagos; Clinical Radiographer

5. Luntsi, Geofery (M.Sc)- UNIMAID, Maiduguri; Academic
6. Okeji, C. Mark (Ph.D) – UNN, Enugu Campus; Academic
The EDUCOM is a saddled with the task of sustaining the Journal of Radiography & Radiation Sciences (JRRS), formally called X-Rays, and which is in its 31st Volume (2017). The next issues are due for May and November, 2018. The EDUCOM also handles conference abstracts.
The pages you turn shall take you to the electronic book of abstracts (e-BOA), a product of the hopes of many decades, and the determination of some great minds of this age. The BOA is already available in hardcopy, right from the conference in November 2017. This e-copy is an addition to that, to make it easily accessible. Being our first attempt at e-BOA, we expect some inadvertent lapses, for which we take responsibility.
The abstracts are categorized into homogenous sections for ease of search. Only authors who actually attended the conference, and presented their works, have it published here. The hardcopy gives access to all those whose submitted abstracts were accepted.
Our requirements for abstract are: ≤300 words, structured, and atleast two names must be full. Affiliations should be clear. Contact details of the presenter should also be included. We also accept poster presentations and encourage radiographers, and other researchers, to endeavour to emplore that avenue too.
We thank Nigerian radiographers for the privilege to contribute to our collective progress.
Adejoh, T.
Chairman
