Biographical details

Dr Mark Mc Entee trained as a radiographer in the University of Ulster at Jordanstown, Northern Ireland and was first employed and a radiographer in the Mater Public Hospital in Dublin. He moved into academia shortly afterward where he completed a PhD in dose optimization and became a Lecturer in University College Dublin. He worked there for 10 years taking a great interest in professional issues becoming the President of the Irish Institute of Radiography and Radiation Therapy and an inaugural member of the health and social care professional council the regulatory body for health professional in Ireland. He became a senior lecturer in the University of Sydney in 2011 where he is heavily involved in curriculum renewal, teaching and research. Current research interests are wide ranging and mainly revolve around; Perception in Medical Imaging, Receiver Operating Characteristic analysis of performance, human performance and performance errors - particularly in medical imaging interpretation, as well as dose and image quality analysis. This research has the aim of improving radiological diagnostic performance.

In dosimetry he is involved in projects in CT Diagnostic Reference Levels and collective doses in Ireland, Portugal and in Malta. He was the editor of Radiography Ireland from 2005-2011, has been an author of over 100 articles in international scientific journals and a reviewer for 6 international journals

  • Joanna Lowe, Doctor of Philosophy (PhD UCD) - Secondary Supervisor Quality assurance in medical imaging is directly beneficial to image quality. Diagnostic images are frequently displayed on secondary class displays that have minimal or no regular quality assurance programmes and treatment decisions are being made from these display types. The purpose of Joanna’s study is to identify the impact of calibration on physical and psychophysical performance of liquid crystal displays (LCDs), to determine the extent of potential variance across various types of LCDs.
  • Frankie Zarb, Doctor of Philosophy (PhD UCD) - Secondary Supervisor Frankie is undertaking a major Project to establish the dose reference levels (DRLs) for CT in Malta. His published work discussed DRLs in relation to computerized tomography (CT) and their role in the standardization and auditing of radiation dose in CT.
  • Shane Foley, Doctor of Philosophy (PhD UCD) - Secondary Supervisor Shane's work is looking at novel ways to reduce dose to the Breast during cardiac CT and to investigate the Collective dose from CT examinations in Ireland.
