Why Use Tungsten Alloy as Detector System

Due to tungsten alloy is high density and atomic mass, tungsten alloy exhibits excellent absorption behaviour against electromagnetic radiation such as X-rays and γ-radiation . The absorption of x-ray and gamma radiation is in direct proportion to the density of the shielding material. Tungsten alloy are more than 1.5 times as effective as lead and provide extremely efficient protection, particularly where space is limited.For this reason, tungsten alloy based materials are used for shielding applications in medical imaging diagnostics and therapy. In the case of X-ray diagnostics, typical applications are collimators in the tungsten alloy detector system and shielding parts in computer tomography.
