Tungsten Shielding Protects Medical Staffs

Radiotherapy tungsten multi-leaf collimators can accurately focus beams of radiation to target cancerous cells. In internal methods such as branchy therapy radioactive seeds can be implanted directly into a tumour. Prior to delivery, the seeds are held in tungsten shielding safe to protect medical staffs from the radiation.

There is a need to carefully control the emission of radiation; to protect those working with potentially harmful isotopes and to ensure that treatments effectively kill off cancerous cells, without harming healthy tissue. This is where tungsten shielding plays a vital role.
