As part of efforts to isolate and utilize local and naturally occurring materials for development of thermoluminescece dosemeters and other technologies, an earlier report had shown that Nigerian clay showed prospects of utility as a thermoluminescence dosemeter (TLD). This paper reports the investigation of the basic thermoluminescence properties of clay at x-rays in the diagnostic radiology range, including dose monitoring in abdominal radiography.
