Tungsten Alloy Shield Applied for Mobile CT Machine

Tungsten alloy shield is a new type of lead-free shield with excellent shielding performance to X-rays so that it is mainly applied for mobile CT machine. Moreover, it is environmentally friendly and non-toxic, and will not affect the water, soil and air in the environment. It has been reported that mobile CT machine is used in mobile cabin hospitals because of its flexibility, efficiency and convenience, and patients can be examined nearby. A chest CT takes less than 3 minutes. The application of this highly sophisticated equipment has played an important role in satisfying first-line treatment.

Now, in addition to nucleic acid detection, CT imaging is another major screening method for novel coronavirus pneumonia. CT images can be used to determine whether a patient is mild or severe, whether they can be discharged from the hospital, and whether they can be released from isolation. In addition, even if the epidemic is under control, the patient must be followed up for a period of CT follow-up, so as to determine which treatment measures to take based on the patient's progress. Wherein, the mobile CT machine is of great clinical significance for the bedside lung CT examination of critically ill patients with novel coronavirus pneumonia. As these patients usually need to undergo multiple CT examinations to track the progress of the disease, so considering the harm of X-rays to patients, usually these mobile CTs are equipped with tungsten alloy shields (or lead shields).
