Basic Principles Of Radiation Therapy Shielding Design

Basic Principles of Radiation Therapy Shielding Design

Basic Principles The purpose of radiation shielding is to reduce the effective equivalent dose from a linear accelerator to a point outside the room to a level that is determined by individual states. Public or uncontrolled area - 0.02 mSv per week - 0.02 mSv in any one hour Controlled area - 1 mSv/wk (in practice 0.1 mSv/wk)
