The room to be shielded is located in the side of the 2nd floor of a multi-storey building. 2. There are floors above and below this room. Therefore shielding calculations are needed for the floor and ceiling of this room 3. The primary beam is totally blocked by the U-Arm image receptor at all times. Therefore no primary shielding is needed for the room. All barriers are Secondary. 4. Full occupancy T=1 is used for the calculations of the operator control console area, the two adjacent exam rooms, the other tenant's rooms to the east, and the floors above and below. 5. Other Occupancy factors are according to NCRP Report 147 and are listed in the main calculation table of the report. 6. We assumed and credited 2x 5/8" of gypsum board drywall for the walls and other structural material as per information and construction drawings provided to us by the vendor and/or the facility (Details in the enclosed drawing copies and the calculation table) 7. Calculations are based on a work load of 300 mA.min per week. 8. All calculations performed to maintain radiation exposures ALARA. 9. Shielding criteria based on NCRP#147 and are designed to meet all requirements of the State of California Radiation Control Regulations and by reference 10CFR20 requirements in addition to other Building Codes.

These are recommended values. These recommendations are based on conservative calculations and reflect considerations for maintaining personnel exposures ALARA,and providing for maximum flexibility of room utilization in the future. 7/16/2014 California Medical Physics,Inc. Pacific_orthopedic._Arcadia_Rad-Rm1_2014-VI (310)209-8546 General Radiation protection recommendations for the construction of new or renovated x-ray rooms appear throughout this report. The required shielding locations and thickness are indicated on the room design drawings, and in the actual Radiation Protection Calculation table. The radiation protection criteria, sources of applicable data and methods of calculation used to derive the recommendations are discussed. General instructions for the construction of the shielded areas are also included. Radiation Protection Criteria The National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) has recommended maximum permissible dose equivalent (MPD) values for the exposure of radiation workers and the general population to ionizing radiation (1). The NCRP recommendations form the basis of the radiation control regulations adopted by most states, including State of California, and are in accord with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission standards for protection against ionizing radiation. The following criteria, which were used to determine all radiation protection requirements presented in this report, are based on recommendations of the NCRP: ...the Council recommends that the annual occupational effective dose be limited to 5000 millirem (50 mSv) (not including medical and natural background exposure). The NCRP recommends that all new facilities and the introduction of all new practices should be designed to limit annual exposures to individuals to a fraction of the 1000 millirem per year (10 mSv per year) limit implied by the cumulative dose limit. For continuous (or frequent) exposure, it is recommended that the annual effective dose not exceed 100 millirem (1mSv). ... Furthermore, a maximum annual effective dose limit of 500 millirem (5 mSv) is recommended to provide for infrequent annual exposures. Effective February 1994, additional requirements further reduced the permissible radiation exposure in fully-occupied non-controlled areas to 2 millirem/week (0.02 mSv/week). This represents a reduction of permissible radiation levels to one-fifth of their previous values. Radiation Source Parameters The radiation source parameters and estimated workloads you provided were used for shielding calculations and are listed in assumptions above. Sufficient safety factors are incorporated into the recommendations to permit the typical workloads to be moderately exceeded without exceeding the exposure limits. All walls requiring shielding have been outlined in heavy colored lines on a copy of the building plans included with this report. Windows with the same attenuation as calculated for the walls, i.e. same lead equivalency are permitted. 7/16/2014 California Medical Physics,Inc. PacificorthopedjcArcadjaR0dj 12014-j// (310)2094546 Shielding Calculations Methods of shielding calculation as described in the NCRP Handbook Report#147 and the articles referenced were used in all determinations of shielding thickness for the primary and secondary beam, scatter and leakage. The recommended shielding is for the construction of the x-ray room described on the enclosed drawings. Any significant changes in unit's position or room configuration must be reviewed for potential changes in shielding requirements. Radiation Protection Survey and Certification After construction, the room must be surveyed for radiation leakage and radiation safety prior to clinical use. This certifies that the shielding barriers were installed according to the recommendations, and assures the safety of all. Safety Devices A warning sign shall be posted on any entry way to the x-ray room. The sign shall have the Radiation Symbol and the words, "Caution Radiation Area" in yellow and magenta. Standard signs for this purpose are available from several sources. The recommendations for safety devices from the manufacturer shall be followed and the installation shall be according to codes.

Radiation Shielding Materials and Methods a The additional shielding material specified is Lead, density 709 lbs /cubic foot. b The normal concrete shielding material must be standard weight, density 147 lbs/cubic foot. c Light concrete specified as 115 lbs/cubic foot. Lt Concrete is calculated 4/3 times the thickness of normal concrete to have the same attenuation. d The doors must be a solid core or metal/fire doors with additional Lead lining as specified in the report. e Door frames must be steel with lead lining to provide equivalent shielding to the surrounding walls f There is to be no gaps in the Lead lining. g Lead shielding in walls should be overlapped by approximately 1 inch to eliminate unshielded areas (if required). h Doors need not be interlocked, unless otherwise indicated (e.g. Manufacturer). i All additional lead shielding is to be added to a height of 84 inches (7 feet) as required by State of California Building Codes. The vertical additional shielding must however extend and cover the entire vertical height up to and join the ceiling shielding barrier if and when lead shielding is required in the ceiling and indicated on the plan. J Darkroom walls may also require shielding that extends to a height of 8.5 feet or to the ceiling to protect film stored on shelves above the standard 7 feet height. 1. Barrier Thickness Measurement and units The following table has the thickness of Lead in different units and is partially used in this shielding report: 2/64 inch = 1/32 inch = 0.79 rnm Lead = 2 lbs/sq ft. 3/64 inch = 3/64 inch = 1.19 mm Lead = 3 lbs/sq ft. 4/64 inch= 1/16 inch = 1.58 mm Lead = 4 lbs/sq ft. 5/64 inch = 5/64 inch = 1.98 mm Lead = 5 lbs/sq ft. 6/64 inch = 3/32 inch = 2.38 mm Lead = 6 lbs/sq ft. 7/64 inch = 7/64 inch = 2.77 mm Lead = 7 lbs/sq ft. 2. Penetration of Shielding Materials a Junction and breaker boxes and conduits which penetrate the shielding shall be backed with Lead of the same thickness as is present in the wall. b Nails penetrating lead shielding need not be covered with additional lead. c Door jambs need to be Lead lined. d For floor and ceiling constructed of at least four inch thick concrete, penetrations in the concrete shall be shielded by 2 sheets of 16 gauge steel, such as a junction box. 3. Safety Devices a A warning sign shall be posted on any entry way to the x-ray room. The sign shall have the radiation symbol and the words, "Caution Radiation Area" in yellow and magenta. Standard signs for this purpose are available from several sources. Electric lights indicating x-ray "on" or"in use" may also be used. 7/16/2014 California Medical Physics,Inc.
