Radiation containment components, sealing assemblies, and methods of use

A radiation sealing assembly for sealing and disposal, the radiation sealing assembly comprising:

• a particulate delivery device comprising a delivery line connector;
• a base connector;
• a microcatheter used to deliver a mixed particulate from the particulate delivery device, the microcatheter configured to be connected to the base connector and the delivery line connector to deliver the mixed particulate, and the microcatheter configured to be disconnected from the base connector and connected to the delivery line connector after use;
• and
• a radiation containment component comprising:
• a proximal end and a distal end disposed opposite the proximal end;
• the proximal end configured to connect to and cover a distal portion of the delivery line connector of the particulate delivery device, the delivery line connector configured to receive the mixed particulate from the particulate delivery device;
• the distal end configured to be disposed over and contain the microcatheter connected to the delivery line connector after use;
• and
• the distal end configured to seal together to contain the microcatheter prior to disposal.

A method for sealing and disposal of a microcatheter used to deliver a mixed particulate from a particulate delivery device, the method comprising:

• connecting a delivery line connector of the particulate delivery device to the microcatheter;
• connecting the microcatheter to a base connector;
• delivering the mixed particulate from the particulate delivery device through the microcatheter and the base connector;
• disconnecting the microcatheter from the base connector after use;
• disposing a proximal end of a radiation containment component over a distal portion of the delivery line connector of the particulate delivery device such that the proximal end does not move in a distal direction;
• extending a distal end of the radiation containment component over to contain the microcatheter connected to the delivery line connector after use;
• and
• sealing the distal end together to contain the microcatheter prior to disposal.
