ClearView Beta – Gamma Syringe Shield
The ClearView Beta-Gamma Syringe Shield is constructed of polycarbonate and acrylic materials which shields against Beta emission and errant bremsstrahlung, and the tungsten based ClearView solution inside attenuates gamma’s. A thumbscrew holds the syringe firmly in place. Syringe shields available for 10cc, 12cc, and 20cc syringes. Other sizes available on request.
