Comments and Recommendations

1. This is a shielding report for a mobile c-arm procedure room located on the third floor of this multi-story building. A minimum floor-to-floor distance of 12 feet was assumed; a minimum of 2 inches concrete is required in the floor and ceiling. The C-Arm is assumed to expose within a 5 ft by 5 ft box area, centered in the room with a straight line of access to the double doors (marked on diagram). Distance measurements are made from the closest point of the barrier to this box area.

2. All shielding requirements are based on NCRP Report #147 (2005): “Structural Shielding Design and Evaluation for Medical Use of X- Rays.” Calculations for each barrier are made using the computer software program based on data and assumptions are from NCRP Report # 147.

3. The following assumptions were used in the shielding calculations:

Workload: 30 patients per week (240 minutes Fluoro beam on) each room. Assumes 8 minutes fluoro time per patient.

4. Assuming all walls will have the standard 2 layers of 5/8" gypsum board and doors are solid-core.

5. The shielding recommendations are designed to meet Radiation Protection Standards as defined by the VA Code of Radiation Control Regulations. Future changes in either assumed information, equipment, workload, or room design will necessitate a re-evaluation of these shielding requirements

6. This report has been updated as of July 13, 2018, to reflect updated in shielding material thickness for North Wall - Balcony; all previous reports should be disregarded. As confirmed by architectural drawings, the exterior contains a total of 1.75 inches gypsum, among other additional materials; the window is solid plate glass with one inch spandrel insulating panel (estimated equivalent thickness is 0.5 inches).
