Dr. Ihsan Al-Affan is a Senior Lecturer in Medical Physics at Swansea University's Faculty of Medicine, Health and Life Sciences, part of the Swansea University Medical School. He holds an academic position within the Medical Physics department and is available for postgraduate supervision. His career spans roles including Clinical Scientist at Velindre Hospital (1990-1998), Lecturer at Zarka University (Jordan, 1998-2001), and Academic Adviser for the UAE Technical Training Project (2001-2011). Currently teaching on the MSc Medical Radiation Physics program, he instructs modules such as Radiation Safety, Advanced Radiation Safety, and Introduction to Medical Physics Practice.
Research focuses on radiation safety engineering, Monte Carlo modeling for radiation therapy design, and mitigating radiation risks in medical facilities. Notable projects include optimizing maze designs for linear accelerator rooms and assessing radon exposure risks in dwellings. His work combines theoretical modeling (e.g., FLUKA code simulations) with experimental validation using scintillation detectors.
Teaching responsibilities include:
- PMPM03 Radiation Physics
- PMPM09 Radiation Protection
- PMPM19 Advances in Radiation Safety
- PMPM29 Specialist Radiation Safety
- PMRM00 Introduction to Medical Physics Practice
His research contributions emphasize practical applications of medical physics principles to improve healthcare facility safety standards.
