Radiation Shielding Design from LANDAUER

Meet Your State’s Shielding Design Requirements

More than 35 states require a radiation shielding design whenever radiation-emitting equipment is moved, replaced or installed. If your state is one of those, LANDAUER Medical Physics® can help at every stage: planning, preparation, and regulatory filings. 

Radiation Shielding Design Example

We complete the following types of shielding designs:

Dental – Radiation shielding designs for all types of x-ray 

  • Cone Beam
  • Intra Oral
  • Cephalometric
  • Panoramic

Medical – Radiation shielding designs for all types of x-ray

  • Radiographic
  • Fluoroscopic
  • Computerized Tomography – CT
  • Mammography

Veterinary – Radiation shielding designs for all types of x-ray

  • Radiographic
  • Intra Oral
  • Computerized Tomography – CT

When you trust your radiation shielding design to LANDAUER Medical Physics, you can be confident your design will meet the highest levels of precision developed by the industry’s leading medical physicists. This level of precision means that you will have the exact amount of radiation room shielding required, avoiding potential regulatory violations from under-shielding or unnecessary expenditures from over-shielding.

LANDAUER Medical Physics is the “go to” choice of imaging facilities nationwide for radiation shielding design services.

FAQs
How do I know if my state requires a radiation shielding design?

Currently, 35 states require a radiation shielding design to be submitted. To find out if your state is one of them, review your state regulations around radiation safety.

What modalities do you design radiation shielding for?

Currently, we create shielding designs for all types of X-ray, including medical, dental, veterinarian, and industrial. We perform more than 2,000 shielding designs annually ranging from multi-equipment installations to single dental/medical practices.

How do I know your radiation shielding design is correct?

Our team of experts complete all calculations and recommendations in accordance with  the National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) reports, applicable state regulations, and As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA) guidelines. 

Do you provide shielding design in my state?

Our physicists provide shielding designs in all states. These clear and concise reports are state-specific and useful to medical practitioners, contractors, and others.

How long does it take to get a shielding design completed?

We can create a shielding design in as little as one day, but typical turnaround time is 1-2 weeks.
