Abstract: An apparatus that acts as a shield for radiopharmaceuticals and protects individuals from radioactivity includes a first body with a first hollow core, a second body with a second hollow core and a third body with a third hollow core. The first hollow core, second hollow core and third hollow core collectively house a hypodermic syringe. A first connection means releasably communicates the first body with the second body. A second connection means releasably communicates the first body with the third body. The third body comprises means for lowering the hypodermic syringe into a well counter to measure radioactivity of the radiopharmaceutical it contains.

Abstract: An apparatus that acts as a shield for radiopharmaceuticals and protects individuals from radioactivity includes a first body with a first hollow core, a second body with a second hollow core and a third body with a third hollow core. The first hollow core, second hollow core and third hollow core collectively house an insert. The insert houses a hypodermic syringe. A first connection means releasably communicates the first body with the second body. A second connection means releasably communicates the first body with the third body. The second body comprises a piston actuator. The piston actuator can be operated to depress the piston of the hypodermic syringe while the first body is in communication with the second body, and while the third body is removed.

Abstract: An apparatus acts as a shield for radiopharmaceuticals and protects individuals from radioactivity includes a first body with a first hollow core and a second body with a second hollow core. The first hollow core fixedly communicates with two hollow stems open on the first edge of the first body. The hollow stems are symmetrically positioned around the center of the first edge. The first hollow core and second hollow core houses an insert. The insert houses a hypodermic syringe. A first connection means releasably communicates the first body with a dose applicator having two telescoping rods that slide inside the hollow stems. A second connection means releasably communicates the first body with the second body. The dose applicator slideably positions the insert and hypodermic syringe with a radiopharmaceutical into and out of the first body when the second body is removed.

Abstract: An apparatus that transports radiopharmaceuticals and protects individuals from radioactivity that includes a first body with a first hollow core open on a first edge and a second edge. The first hollow core surrounds an insert containing a hypodermic syringe. There is a second body with a second hollow core open on a first edge and closed on a second edge. The second hollow core surrounds the insert with the hypodermic syringe. A third body with a third hollow core open on a first edge has the third hollow core fixedly communicating with a hollow stem open on a second edge. The third hollow core surrounds the insert with the hypodermic syringe. A first connection means releasably communicates the first body with the second body and a second communication means releasably communicates with the first body and third body for providing protection from the radioactive agent.
