The Advantages of Tungsten Alloy Linear Accelerators

Tungsten alloy products for collimators are widely used in linear accelerators used for radiotherapy treatments. They help to shape the beam of radiation emerging from the machine, they can limit the maximum field size of a beam.

The advantages of tungsten alloy linear accelerators：
Due tungsten alloys have the ability of various high-ray shielding,tungsten alloy can be the good materials for linear accelerators. The thickness 3mm of tungsten alloy can shield 95% of 150keV γ radiation. Tungsten alloy materials are suit for high spatial resolution occasion, such as radiological Imaging array detectors.Tungsten alloy materials has high density, (60% higher than lead), reduces the size of tungsten alloy ray shields, without affecting the radiation shielding effect.Comparing with tungsten alloy and lead, when they with the same performance of radiation shielding, the volume of tungsten alloy is 1/3 of lead .
