Sheath for syringe barrel

DETAILED DESCRIPTION Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a sheath for a syringe barrel which allows the use of general-purpose disposable needles and effectively prevents an operator's fingers or hands from being hurt, and enables registering of a needle point before radioactive pharmaceutical liquid is set, thereby reducing the exposure of the fingers or hands of the operator to radioactive rays.
In accomplishing this and other objects, according to one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a sheath for a syringe barrel, comprising: a main body in which a radiation shielding device for holding a syringe filled with pharmaceutical liquid therein is fitted; a male luer provided at a front end of the main body and designed to set a disposable needle; and a transfixing needle extending backward from inside of the male luer to penetrate a rubber plug at an opening at a front end of a syringe held in the main body.
