Tungsten alloy isotope container is a specially designed shielded transport container for radioactive sources. Also, such a container can also serve as a storage or exposure container for the radioactive sources. In nuclear medicine, it is necessary to store the radioactive sources safely, so vials of radiopharmaceuticals are held in tungsten alloy radiation shielding - tungsten alloy isotope container while the dose is drawn up into a syringe ready for treatment.

Using tungsten alloy for radiation shielding reduces the finger dose received by medical staff, protecting them from exposure to harmful levels of radiation. And the density of tungsten alloy also enables the thickness of the shield to be reduced, making it easier to handle. Besides, such a tungsten alloy shielding container is non-toxic, removing the need for paint or encasement to prevent direct contact with skin. In addition, tungsten alloy is strong, anti-scratch and dent resistant, making the container easier to clean and sterilize.
