Tungsten Alloy Medical Shielding: Protecting Patients and Medical Personnel during Diagnostic and Therapeutic Procedures 118

Medical procedures that involve the use of ionizing radiation, such as X-rays and CT scans, can be potentially harmful to both patients and medical personnel. To minimize the risks associated with these procedures, it is crucial to use appropriate radiation shielding. One of the most effective materials for radiation shielding is tungsten alloy. Tungsten alloys are made of tungsten, a dense and highly radioactive material, combined with other metals such as nickel or iron. The resulting material is extremely dense…
