Abstract

1,239,493. Irradiation apparatus. ATOMENERGI A.B. 2 May, 1969 [2 May, 1968], No. 22618/69. Heading H5R. An appliance for interstitial radiation of organs in the human or animal body includes a cannular tube 3 which is mounted at the end of a rod 2 and handle 1, and contains a radioactive compound 6 which can be exposed to a desired extent by a radiation-absorbing sheath 10 adjustably displaceable along the tube and rod. The filling 6 is retained by plugs 4 and 5, and the sheath 10 is attached to the handle by a threaded cylindrical body 11 to permit its axial adjustment, the length of the exposed portion of the tube 3 being given by a scale 12 formed on the body 11.
