Tungsten alloy is more and more widely used for radiation protection to shield people or objects from radiation. For example, it is promising in applications of converging collimator – an important part of human brain SPECT, which is known to increase the photon detection efficiency compared to conventional parallel-hole collimator in SPECT imaging. That is because tungsten alloy is poison-free with better radiation shielding ability than lead (poisonous).

Tungsten alloy is a safe and reliable radiation shielding material that can replace the traditional radiation shielding material lead for parallel-hole collimator – the most commonly used collimator for stationary SPECT imaging in hospitals. As a new type of radiation shielding material, tungsten alloy has many advantages such as high strength, good processability, no secondary bremsstrahlung radiation, and environmental protection for applications of parallel-hole collimator. Also, the thickness of tungsten alloy is only 2/3 of lead to obtain the same…

Tungsten alloy collimator is also known as tungsten heavy alloy collimator or high-density tungsten alloy collimator. Collimator is a key component of gamma camera – the most basic imaging equipment in nuclear medicine, and affects the imaging quality. So, it is very important to choose the raw material of collimator. Tungsten alloy has good absorption and shielding performance to 60Co, 137Cs and other strong gamma ray sources, and therefore, it is regarded as the best shielding material for collimators. And…
