Design and practical evaluation of a shielded application system for intravenously administered radionuclide therapies

Intravenous radionuclide therapies are gaining importance. With the increased frequency of these therapies, safe application procedures in combination with effective radiation protection are needed. We present a shielded system which can be universally used for the application of liquid radiopharmaceuticals. The application system consists of a cuboidal box made of lead with stainless steel coating, an inner layer of polymethyl methacrylate...
