INTRODUCTION.
The purpose of this project is to investigate the potential cancer implications of background
ionizing radiation exposure to sensitive organs in gashua main market, yobe state Specifically, we
will focus on the presence of primordial radionuclide’s and their impact on human health.
STATEMENT OF RESULT:
Ionizing radiation can affect the atom in living things, so it poses a health risk by damaging tissues
and dna in genes, has a sufficient energy to affect the atoms in lining cells and thereby damaging
their genetic materials (DNA)
OBJECTIVES:
1. Quantify the levels of background ionizing radiation in gashua main market, Yobe State.
3. Determine the potential health risks associated with exposure to these radionuclides.
4. Investigate the correlation between radiation exposure and the development of cancer in
sensitive organs.
SIGNIFICANCE OF STUDY.
1. It helps us understand the potential health risks associated with radiation exposure in that
gashua main market, Bade local government Yobe state.
2. The study contributes to our overall understanding of the relationship between radiation
exposure and the development of cancer, particularly in sensitive organs.
3. The findings of this study can provide valuable insights for future research and contribute to the
scientific literature on radiation and cancer. It's important to continue studying and raising
awareness about these issues for the well-being of gashua main market community prevention and
treatment strategies.
The scope of the study on the cancer implications of background ionizing radiation exposure to
sensitive organs in gashua main market, Yobe State, would involve conducting research to assess
the level of radiation exposure in the area. This would include collecting data on the presence of
primordial radionuclide and measuring their impact on sensitive organs of the body. The study
would also aim to investigate the potential health risks associated with this radiation exposure,
particularly in relation to the development of cancer. By examining these factors, researchers can
gain a better understanding of the specific implications of background ionizing radiation on the
health of individuals in gashua main market. It's an important study that can provide valuable
insights into the potential risks and guide future measures to protect the community.
Common sources of background ionizing radiation include natural sources such as cosmic radiation
from space, radon gas from the soil and rocks, and naturally occurring radioactive materials in the
Earth's crust. Additionally, background radiation can also come from man-made sources such as
medical procedures (like X-rays), nuclear power plants, and certain industrial activities. It's
important to note that while background radiation is present everywhere, the levels can vary
depending on geographical location and other factors.
METHODOLOGY.
1. Conduct a survey of radiation levels using appropriate dosimeters in various locations within
gashua main market.
2. Utilize relevant statistical analysis to establish the relationship between radiation exposure and
cancer incidence.
3. Collaborate with medical professionals to gather data on cancer cases in sensitive organs among
the population of gashua main market.
EXPECTED OUTCOMES:
3. Insight into the potential cancer implications of long-term exposure to these radionuclide’s.
CONCLUSION:
This project aims to shed light on the cancer implications of background ionizing radiation
exposure to sensitive organs in gashua main market, Yobe State. By understanding the potential
risks and developing appropriate interventions, we can work towards safeguarding the health and
well-being of the community.
