An X-ray booth is only as effective as its weakest point. Lead glass windows give staff a clear view into the room without a corresponding line of exposure — but getting them right means understanding lead equivalency, safety glass options, sizing, and how the window integrates with the rest of your shielding system.

Small clinics have different shielding needs than large hospital systems — tighter spaces, smaller budgets, and less time to plan. This guide breaks down the most practical radiation shielding options for independent clinics, from permanent wall solutions to flexible barriers and curtains, and helps you match the right product to your situation.

If you're building a radiation-protected room, it might be time to look into modular shielding - so you and your company will be prepared for anything.

Lead shielding plays a critical role in nuclear medicine and oncology. Learn how it protects staff, patients, and the public in imaging and radiation therapy environments.

When designing a medical imaging room, it's more than the safety of the patients you need to worry about; doctors can also be exposed to harmful radiation. But with medical curtains, they don't have to be.

Shielding thickness isn’t one-size-fits-all. Learn what factors medical physicists consider when calculating radiation shielding for healthcare radiology rooms—and how Intech products fit into the plan.

Cyclotrons, linear accelerators, and radiation therapy rooms require advanced shielding. Learn how these spaces are protected and which Intech products support safe, compliant designs.

Interventional radiology requires shielding that protects staff while preserving access to patients and equipment. Learn how to balance safety and workflow with the right shielding solutions.

Designing an X-ray room? Learn what to know about lead-lined walls and doors, how shielding is specified, and how Intech helps you build inspection-ready rooms.

What is lead acrylic and when should you use it? Learn how clear, radiation-shielding acrylic panels provide protection and visibility for medical, dental, veterinary, and industrial imaging.

A simple guide to radiation shielding for dental and veterinary clinics—what rooms need, how much lead to use, and which Intech products to order.

Radiation shielding isn’t just about safety—it’s also about savings. Learn how proper barriers reduce downtime, avoid fines, and protect staff, and see why modern lead-free options from Intech deliver even greater long-term ROI.

Not sure how much lead you need for shielding? Learn how radiation energy, exposure levels, and room use determine the right lead thickness—so you can design safe, code-compliant spaces without overbuilding.

Protecting medical staff from radiation? Learn how lead aprons, mobile shields, and ceiling-suspended barriers work together to reduce exposure during diagnostic and interventional procedures.

Compare lead and lead-free radiation shielding in terms of safety, performance, cost, and environmental impact. Find the best fit for your facility.
