    abstract = {The present research attempts to measure background ionizing 
  radiation in an high altitude town of Imesi-Ile, Osun State, Southwestern, Nigeria. 
  The measurements were carried out in 20 locations within the town using portable 
  Digilert 50 Nuclear Radiation monitor. The absorbed dose rates obtained ranges 
  from 26.6-48.6 nGy h<SUP>-1</SUP> with a mean value 37.19 nGy h<SUP>-1</SUP>. 
  The estimated annual effective dose is 0.46 mSv. This value is less than annual 
  dose unit of 1 mSv recommended by UNSCEA for normal environment.}
