In the radon prone area of the Adamawa region in Cameroon, most of the dwellings are built with locally made mud bricks. The contribution of this building material to the inhalation dose was assessed using the RESRAD Build software. Assuming the indoor occupancy factor of 0.6, the related dose is found to be 0.8 mSv y-1 corresponding to 14% of the total inhalation dose. Thus, the contribution of the used building material to the inhalation dose in this radon prone area is not negligible.
