Injection Shield With 2mm Wall Thickness

Description Of Injection Shield With 2mm Wall Thickness

The Injection Shield with 2mm Wall Thickness is made from tungsten, a dense metal with excellent radiation-attenuating properties, providing superior protection compared to lead or other materials. Tungsten offers higher density (19.3 g/cm³), allowing for thinner, more compact shielding without compromising safety. The Injection Shield with 2mm Wall Thickness is a specialized radiation shielding device designed to protect healthcare workers from exposure to beta and gamma radiation during the handling and administration of radiopharmaceuticals. 

Features Of Injection Shield With 2mm Wall Thickness

Lighter and more durable than lead shields of equivalent protection.

Better attenuation per unit thickness compared to lead or acrylic shields.

Reusable and easy to clean (typically wiped with disinfectants).

Applications Of Injection Shield With 2mm Wall Thickness

PET/MR imaging involves injecting high-energy isotopes such as FDG-F18 and using tungsten syringes designed to shield high-energy isotopes. This means that during the injection process, safety can be achieved without affecting the quality of the imaging. Additionally, tungsten is non-magnetic, which means that it is perfect for PET/MR imaging environments and is not going to interfere with the imaging equipment.
