Guidelines for shielding of x-ray installations

While lead is a suitable shielding option for energies encountered in diagnostic x-rays, it is a weak structural material with tendency to lose uniformity and needs periodic radiation survey to ensure its continued adequacy. Also, Lead poses a serious environmental hazard and the use of it is being discouraged the world over.
