It is able to penetrate through most materials, including lead, steel, and concrete. However, it can be stopped by very dense materials, such as lead or depleted uranium.<\/p>\n<p>Lead is the most common material used to shield against gamma radiation. It is a dense metal that absorbs gamma rays very effectively.
