Abstract

Today, one of the common medical irradiation practices is carried out in the patient’s body by giving radioisotopes. Part of the radioisotope is excreted from the body through urine. Radioisotopes in the urine of patients cause an unnecessary radiation exposure for patients carrying the urine bag itself and the surroundings. This project proposal aims to design "Radiation Protection Urine Bag" which reduces the radiation exposure.
