Abstract:
This studywas aimed to evaluate the design of computed tomography rooms in ten different hospitals and centers the Khartoum state; was conducted in October 2020 to march 2021 using dimensions’ devices to measure the dimensions of the computed tomography rooms i.e. the control rooms and the device rooms in the sketch for each department. The result showed that seven rooms were designed based on the international recommendation of the international energy agency the dimension of the device room was 6 × 4 meters the dimension of the control room was 4 × 2 meters and the dimension of the waiting area was 18 meters square namely hospitals A, C, D, F, H, I and J; while hospital B the difference in the area was 2 meters as well the control room 2 meters, hospital E the difference was 1.75 meters for the waiting area as well the control room was 1.75 meters, hospitals G the difference was 1.85 meters for the waiting area as well as the control room. Also the study found that the best design of computed tomography scan rooms is found in the A and F hospitals as well as the lack of a complete separation between the control room and device room was in hospital B. therefore it is necessary to take the dimensions correctly in order to ensure the quality and integrity of the design of the computed tomography room in terms of the dimensions recognized by the atomic energy agency.
