Veterinary X-Ray or CT Room Shielding Report

Are You Building a New Veterinary X-Ray or CT Room?

Before construction begins, you need to know what radiation protection is required for your new X-ray or CT room.

  • How thick should the drywall be?
  • Is lead shielding required inside the walls?
  • What protection is needed for the floor and ceiling?
  • How should the control booth be protected?

We can provide a physicist-prepared shielding report specifically for your veterinary hospital.

Veterinary X-Ray or CT Room Shielding Report

What Is a Physicist’s Shielding Report?

A physicist’s shielding report specifies the radiation protection required for your room. It may identify the amount of lead shielding needed or the thickness and number of drywall layers required for the walls.

The report can become an important part of your veterinary hospital’s construction specifications and help your contractor understand the shielding requirements before the room is built.

The Report May Include Shielding Requirements for:

  • Walls
  • Floors and ceilings
  • Doors and windows
  • Control booth
  • Adjacent rooms and occupied areas

Know What Protection Your Room Requires

Every room is different. Shielding requirements may depend on the type of equipment being installed, room dimensions, equipment placement, expected workload, and how the surrounding areas are used.
