Tungsten Alloy Radiation Shielding

 Tungsten heavy alloy shielding is used 
in  applications  such  as  Radioactive 
source containers, Gamma radiography 
shields,  Shielding  block,  X­ray 
collimators, Nuclear shielding wall etc.
Tungsten Medical Radiation Shielding

  Tungsten heavy alloy medical radiation shielding  is  used  in  applications 
such as collimator, nuclear shielding, beamstop, PET syringe shield, vial shield, 
isotope container, FDG container, multi leaf collimator etc.
Why is radiation protection important?
 Radiation is a very important part of our modern lives. Without it we 
would not have been able to make the advances in diagnostic imaging 
and medicine that we have today.
 Radiation is part of everyday life both in an industrial setting and of 
course medical.
  If  an  individual working  near  a  source  of radiation  is  not protected 
by  radiation  shielding  then  there  is  the  potential  to  cause  damage  to 
the body.
 If an individual is regularly exposed to high levels of radiation they 
will have a significant increased likelihood of contracting tumours and 
cancer.
Radiation sickness is also referred to as radiation poisoning and 
is known to cause the following symptoms:
 Nausea and vomiting
 Diarrhea
 Weakness, fatigue, exhaustion, fainting
 Dehydration
  Inflammation  of  exposed  areas  (redness,  tenderness,  swelling, 
bleeding)
 Hair loss
 Ulceration of the oral mucosa
 Vomiting of blood
 Bloody stool
 Bleeding from the nose, mouth, gums, and rectum
 Bruising
 Sloughing of skin
 Open sores on the skin
Why Use Tungsten Alloy Radiation Cap?
  Compared  to  traditional  radiation  shielding  materials  such  as 
lead  and  boron  carbide,  tungsten  alloy  radiation  cap  provide 
excellent density with small capacity.

  Tungsten  alloy  radiation 
shielding  material  could  be 
made  with  thinner  thickness 
but  high  absorption  of 
radiation in high density.
