A rolling radiation shield and related systems and methods for providing radiation shielding at an imaging machine are disclosed. An imaging device is located within a housing which also accommodates a conveyor for moving objects through the housing and within imaging distance of the imagining device. The rolling radiation shield is positioned at an entrance and/or exit to the housing, and may include one or more outer portions which contacts the conveyor to cause rotational movement of the rolling radiation shield when the conveyor is activated and an axle. At least one component of the rolling radiation shield comprises material which attenuates radiation from the imaging machine.
