Create and modify models of photon and gamma-ray shields and calculate necessary dose levels. Use radiation measurements to assess source strength, access an extensive library of materials based on NIST, ANSI/ANS-6.4.2-2006, insert dimensions in meters, centimeters, feet, or inches, and perform analysis of data.

From the developer:
MicroShield is a comprehensive photon/gamma ray shielding and dose assessment program that is widely used for designing shields, estimating source strength from radiation measurements, minimizing exposure to people, and teaching shielding principles.
MicroShield is useful to health physicists, waste managers, design engineers, and radiological engineers and only requires a basic knowledge of radiation and shielding principles.
