Abstract: A safe radiation shielded seed loader for hand implanter hypodermic needles with removable seed loading disk. The removable seed loading disk enhances the ability to quickly and safely load radioactive seeds into hypodermic needles. As a result, the loading process is greatly expedited and a substantial reduction of the radiation exposure time to hands, fingers and eyes of the person loading the seeds is accomplished. Once loaded, a spacer-key prevents obturators from pressing the loaded seeds, now carried in a shielded container, out of the needles until use. A removable carrying handle with lifting arms and a cover plate with a recessed area to accommodate the heads of the obturators is provided. As a result, the easily and quickly loaded device may be safely transported to the implantation site without fear of radiation exposure or damage to the needles themselves.
