Solid lead encased in steel construction – supports durability and structural integrity
Custom designs available – accommodates unique chamber dimensions and workflow requirements
Product overview
Dose calibrator shields are designed to provide localized radiation protection around calibration chambers used in nuclear medicine and radiopharmacy settings. During activity measurement, dose calibrators may emit radiation from the chamber opening. Proper shielding around the well helps reduce exposure to personnel while maintaining workflow efficiency.
Ultraray manufactures dose calibrator shields in custom lead thicknesses to match isotope type, activity level, and facility requirements. Shields can be fabricated to accommodate major commercial calibrator systems, including widely used platforms such as Atomlab and other leading dose calibrators. Chamber compatibility should be verified during specification.
Shields may be designed as standalone units placed around the chamber or integrated into L-Block assemblies or workstations. Solid lead encased in steel provides structural durability while maintaining shielding integrity. Each shield is engineered to align with the broader radiation protection strategy of the hot lab and should be coordinated with surrounding shielding elements and workflow design.
