Ahmad Nobah, MSc, DABR
Founder, RadiationKnowledge
Mr. Ahmad Nobah got his MS degree in Medical Physics in 2006. He obtained his American Board of Radiology (ABR) certification in the field of radiotherapy in 2012. Currently, he works as a Sr. Medical Physicist in the Biomedical Physics department, King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Centre in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. He is involved in many radiation oncology technological implementation and development, both clinically and research oriented disciplines. His advanced radiotherapy planning skills as one of the top planners worldwide in previous plan competitions inspired him to initiate the RadiationKnowledge (RK) initiative.
His main fields of interest are integrating Medical 3D Printing (M3DP), Virtual & Augmented Reality (VR/AR), artificial intelligence applications in radiotherapy and medicine in general, and designing patient specific phantoms fabricated with 2D, and 3D for dose verification methods.
Waleed Alnajjar, PhD, DABR, DABMP
Co-Founder, RadiationKnowledge
Dr. Waleed Al-Najjar obtained his Ph.D. in Medical Radiation Physics in 1998. He then became board certified by the American Board of Radiology in 2000, and the American Board of Medical Physics in 2001. He currently runs a medical physics and dosimetry consulting company. He has extensive experience implementing new initiatives, and has successfully developed and led planning and operations for large national and international health systems. In addition to implementing new treatment modalities and providing support to various radiation oncology clinics, he specializes in resolving equipment commissioning challenges.
