ABSTRACT:
A radioaerosol delivery apparatus particularly adapted for the subsequent disposal of radioactively contaminated elements is described. The apparatus includes a shielding container including an outer shell and an inner shell supported within the outer shell. The inner shell is formed with an inner wall and an outer wall defining a space therebetween for receiving radiation shielding material. The inner wall is formed to provide a surface conforming substantially to the contour of the radioaerosol source and a surface conforming substantially to the contour of a portion of a transport manifold supported thereon. A removable cover including radiating shielding material is formed with a portion conforming generally to the contour of the transport manifold. The inner wall of the container and the cover define at least one opening therebetween to permit fluid communication from the transport manifold to a patient utilizing the apparatus.
