The 1-131 Delivery and Dispensing unit assists both the vet and nurses by providing improved protection during the delivery of 1-131 to the animal. The Gammasonics 1-131 DD Unit consists of two high energy lead glass barriers which provide protection for 364 keV 1-131 and can easily be upgraded to 511 keV for FDG (PET). The nurse can be immobilise the animal whilst still receiving full protection to the head and body.
The unit can also be fitted with a flush mounted lead lined chamber for the 1-131 pot. There is sufficient space in the carriage to include a storage safe for other applications if needed.
All of which makes the 1-131 Dispensing and Shield a truly multi-purpose unit.
