Tungsten alloy syringe shield applied for PET is made of high density tungsten alloy and lead glass. After special processing, such a syringe shield has a good radiation shielding effect on short-lived radionuclides such as 18F, 11C, etc, to provide good external radiation protection for nuclear medicine workers. PET is an abbreviation of Positron Emission Computed Tomography in English, a relatively advanced clinical examination imaging technology in the field of nuclear medicine.
