Tungsten Alloy Syringe Shielding Parts

1. What Are Tungsten Alloy Syringe Shielding Parts?
Tungsten alloy syringe shielding parts, also known as tungsten alloy syringe shields, are radiation protection components for hand-held extraction, preparation, and injection of radiopharmaceuticals in nuclear medicine and radiomedicine, protecting the hands, fingers, and forearms of healthcare personnel. CTIA’s tungsten alloy syringe shielding parts feature high density and excellent radiation attenuation performance, effectively reducing γ-ray radiation dose generated by common radionuclides such as Tc-99m and F-18. Compared to traditional lead shields, tungsten alloy syringe shields offer higher shielding efficiency, lighter structure, superior mechanical performance, and non-toxic eco-friendly advantages, serving as essential personal radiation protection equipment in daily nuclear medicine operations.

2. Features of CTIA’s Tungsten Alloy Syringe Shielding Parts
(1) Efficient Shielding: Density typically ranges 17–18.5 g/cm³, providing strong attenuation capability against γ-rays generated by radionuclides such as Tc-99m and F-18. Under equivalent protection requirements, volume and weight are smaller than traditional lead shields.
(2) Lightweight Structure: Adopts reasonable wall thickness design, reducing overall weight while ensuring shielding effect, facilitating long-term hand-held operation for healthcare personnel.
(3) Convenient Observation: Select models equipped with lead glass viewing windows and white inner lining design allow clear visibility of syringe graduations, liquid state, and operation process, enhancing operational convenience.
(4) Strong Adaptability: Compatible with common syringe sizes such as 1 cc, 2 cc, 3 cc, 5 cc, and 10 cc. Certain products can be configured with locking mechanisms, detachable flanges, and other structures to meet diverse operational needs.
(5) Non-Toxic and Eco-Friendly: Lead-free composition eliminates risk of lead precipitation and secondary contamination. Easy-to-clean surface meets modern medical radiation protection requirements.

3. Applications of CTIA’s Tungsten Alloy Syringe Shielding Parts
(1) Nuclear Medicine Operations: Used for radiation protection during extraction, preparation, and injection of radiopharmaceuticals involving common radionuclides like technetium-99m (Tc-99m) and fluorine-18 (F-18), reducing γ-ray radiation dose received by hands, fingers, and forearms of medical staff.
(2) PET/CT Examinations: Used for protection during transit and injection of positron radiopharmaceuticals such as F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) in Positron Emission Tomography (PET) / Computed Tomography (CT) procedures, providing effective shielding against 511 keV annihilation photons produced by F-18.
(3) Radiopharmaceutical Dispensing: Used for handling radioactive substances during radiopharmaceutical preparation and dispensing. Compatible with various syringe sizes, reducing personnel exposure during drug transfer and injection processes.
(4) Scientific Research Experiments: Applied in injection procedures during radioactive isotope tracer experiments and related studies, meeting laboratory requirements for localized γ-ray protection, operational safety, and equipment adaptability.
