Development of custom lead shield and strainer for targeted irradiation for mice in the gamma cell chamber

Abstract We presented a development of a custom lead shield and mouse strainer for targeted irradiation from the gamma-cell chamber. This study was divided into two parts i.e., to (i) fabricate the shield and strainer from a lead (Pb) and (ii) optimize the irradiation to the mice-bearing tumour mode...
