1. A neutron shielded door for an enclosure housing an accelerator which discharges neutrons during use, said door comprising: a front face, a rear face, two side faces, a top face and a bottom face which define a hollow interior portion;  movement means for permitting opening and closing of said door to permit access to said accelerator;  inlet means for permitting a neutron retarding fluid to be introduced into said interior portion, said fluid deterring the escape of neutrons from said enclosure; and  baffle means arranged in said hollow interior portion for preventing suring of said fluid during movement of said door. 2. The neutron shielded door of claim 1, wherein means are provided for using said door with a medical accelerator. 3. The neutron shielded door of claim 1, wherein said movement means comprises track follower means, said track follower means being guided along a track on a door frame associated with said door to permit sliding of said door relative to said door frame. 4. The neutron shielded door of claim 1, wherein said movement means comprises a hinge for permitting said door to pivot between an open and closed position. 5. The neutron shielded door of claim 1 further comprising a fluid indicator means for indicating the amount of fluid contained in said hollow interior. 6. The neutron shielded door of claim 1 wherein said neutron retarding fluid comprises water with a dissolved boron compound. 7. The neutron shielded door of claim 1, wherein said baffle means comprises a purallity of baffle is longitudinally extending from said top face to said bottom face of said door.
