Structural Shielding Design and Evaluation for Megavoltage x- and Gamma-ray Radiotherapy Facilities This Report was prepared through a joint effort of NCRP Scientific Committee 46-13 on Design of Facilities for Medical Radiation Therapy and the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) Task Group 57.

Kleck Nisy E. Ipe This Report addresses the structural shielding design and evaluation for medical use of megavoltage x- and gamma-rays for radiotherapy and supersedes related material in NCRP Report No. 49, Structural Shielding Design and Evaluation for Medical Use of X Rays and Gamma Rays of Energies Up to 10 MeV, which was issued in September 1976. The descriptive information in NCRP Report No. 49 unique to x-ray therapy installations of less than 500 kV (Section 6.2) and brachytherapy is not included in this Report and that information in NCRP Report No. 49 for those categories is still applicable. Similarly therapy simulators are not covered in this report and the user is referred to the recent Report 147 for shielding of imaging facilities. New Issues since NCRP # 49 – New types of equipment with energies above 10 MV, – Many new uses for radiotherapy equipment, – Dual energy machines and new treatment techniques, – Room designs without mazes, – Varied shielding materials including composites, – More published data on empirical methods. 1) Introduction (purposes, units, basic principles) 2) Calculati
