Development of tungsten collimators for industrial radiography

  • 1. Board of Radiation and Isotope Technology, Mumbai (India)

Description

Collimators are essential components of industrial radiography set up as it provides radiation safety to persons involved in the radiography work. A collimator with optimum design features also helps in reducing the scattered radiation which in turn results in radiographs having better sensitivity. This papers describes the salient design features of the tungsten collimators developed by the BRIT, for industrial radiography. (author)
