The BEXXAR Shipping System transports one Unit Dose Pig that houses a 60 cc syringe for the new radiotherapy drug BEXXAR. The pig is designed to reduce exposure while shipping I-131. The body of the pig is constructed of lead shielding encased in a polycarbonate shell and will hold a 60 cc syringe filled to 30 cc. The lead thickness of the pig, combined with the lead in the shipping container has been calculated to allow less than 50 mR at the surface of an ammo can. The system holds 160 mCi and meets DOT II shipping requirements.
