Tungsten alloy collimator is used in an anger camera for collimation and absorption of gamma rays. And therefore, it improves imaging quality and protects patients. Anger camera, which is more often known as gamma camera or γ-camera, is a device used to image gamma radiation emitting radioisotopes. More details, please visit: http://www.tungsten-alloy.com/tungsten-alloy-radiation-shielding.html According to the researchers, a common problem of gamma cameras is their reduced sensitivity. Only the gamma rays that are emitted parallel to the tungsten alloy collimators (for…

CT scanner tungsten alloy collimator, as its name suggests, is tungsten alloy collimator used in the CT scanner. There are two tungsten alloy collimators on a CT scanner. And they are known as pre-patient collimator and post-patient collimator, respectively. More details, please visit: http://www.tungsten-alloy.com/tungsten-alloy-radiation-shielding.html As tungsten alloy has high density and strong attenuation capabilities for X-rays, CT scanner tungsten alloy collimator has advantages as following as: Improve the quality of CT imaging; Reduce the radiation dose of patients; Adjust the…

SPECT tungsten alloy collimator is a new type of lead-free collimator, and is made of high quality tungsten-based alloy – a new type of environmentally friendly shielding material with good absorption properties for gamma rays (due to its own high density). It means that tungsten alloy collimator is used in nuclear medicine imaging. But do you know why SPECT is also known as gamma camera? More details, please visit: http://www.tungsten-alloy.com/tungsten-alloy-radiation-shielding.html In SPECT, radiation source used is mainly Tc99m (140 keV…

Tungsten alloy collimator is the core component of a γ camera (gamma camera), more specifically, it is an important part of the detector on a gamma camera. Gamma rays from radioactive source within the body emitted in all directions, so a collimator is needed to achieve high degree of collimation. More details, please visit: http://www.tungsten-alloy.com/tungsten-alloy-radiation-shielding.html The operating principle of tungsten alloy collimator is absorptive collimation. It means that only gamma rays travelling in certain directions go through and reach the…

Tungsten alloy X ray shielding device is a device for effectively shielding the X-rays emitted by the CT machine. There are shielding materials such as tungsten alloy plates and tungsten rubber blankets on such a radiation shielding device. CT machine is developed from X-ray machine, and its resolution and qualitative diagnosis accuracy rate are much higher than that of general X-ray machine, thereby broadening the adaptability range of X-ray examination and greatly improving the accuracy rate of X-ray diagnosis. More…

Tungsten alloy leaf is an important component on the multi-leaf collimator, and is also the main part of an IMRT device, which can achieve conformal irradiation, thereby minimizing the leakage of radiation dose. There are at least 20 pairs of tungsten alloy leaves on the multi-leaf collimator. Wherein, IMRT is also known as intensity modulated radiation therapy. More details, please visit: http://www.tungsten-alloy.com/tungsten-alloy-radiation-shielding.html IMRT device is the direction of radiation therapy in the 21st century. The so-called intensity modulated radiation therapy…

Lead door has related applications in the IMRT plan, according to reports. This means that the new type of shielding door that has a better radiation shielding effect than lead door – an environmentally friendly tungsten alloy door can also be used in this treatment plan. More details, please visit: http://www.tungsten-alloy.com/tungsten-alloy-radiation-shielding.html In the IMRT plan, the arrangement of some angle shots is only due to a part of the demand in the target area, not the whole. In this case,…

Radiation-proof tungsten alloy door has stronger radiation absorption capacity than the traditional lead door, and it is non-toxic and environmentally friendly. Therefore, its application has attracted more and more researchers’ attention. X-rays, γ-rays and other radioactive sources are required for relevant examinations and treatments in many departments of the hospital. However, radiation does harm to people passing by or waiting for outside these departments. Therefore, shielding doors are needed. Wherein, radiation-proof tungsten alloy door is considered to be a new…

Tungsten alloy CT room door is made of tungsten nickel iron alloy (W-Ni-Fe alloy), which has a good shielding effect on X-rays. And it has better radiation shielding performance than lead door. More importantly, tungsten alloy is non-toxic and non-polluting. The manufacturing process of tungsten alloy door will not pollute the environment. And tungsten alloy door can also be recycled for ecological protection. More details, please visit: http://www.tungsten-alloy.com/tungsten-alloy-radiation-shielding.html Tungsten alloy CT room door, together with the thick concrete wall, provides…
