Radiation protection is essential for healthcare professionals who work with X-ray radiation. One important piece of equipment for radiation protection is the lead apron, and Z&Z Medical offers a new line of Guardian aprons, vests and skirts that provides excellent protection at great prices.

One of the key features of these new Guardian aprons from Z&Z Medical is the inclusion of a free thyroid collar with every purchase.

The inclusion of a free thyroid collar with each apron means that healthcare professionals can have added protection without any additional cost.

Another great feature of the Guardian aprons, vests and skirts is the free name holder. The name holder is a simple but effective way of identifying the wearer of the apron and can help eleminate the extra cost of personal monogramming.

They are also available in different sizes to fit a variety of body types.

X-ray technologists are at risk of exposure to scatter radiation while performing diagnostic imaging procedures. Scatter radiation is a type of radiation that is emitted in various directions, rather than directly at the target area, and can potentially expose nearby organs and structures to radiation. One of the ways to minimize this exposure is by using appropriate shielding and limiting the amount of radiation used during the procedure.

Another important measure to protect against scatter radiation is for the X-ray technologist to wear protective eyewear. The eyewear, also known as radiation protective eyewear, is specifically designed to protect the eyes from scatter radiation. They are made of materials such as lead or tungsten that can effectively block or absorb the radiation before it reaches the eyes.

Wearing protective eyewear is especially important for X-ray technologists who frequently perform procedures in fluoroscopy or interventional radiography. This is because the higher the radiation dose, the greater the risk of developing cataracts or other eye problems. Additionally, even low levels of radiation exposure over an extended period of time can still increase the risk of developing eye problems and even cataracts.

It is important to note that the use of protective eyewear is not only important for the technologist but also for any other healthcare professional in the room during the procedure.  

In conclusion, protective eyewear is an essential piece of personal protective equipment for X-ray technologists. It is important for employers to provide and enforce the use of radiation protective eyewear to minimize the risk of exposure to scatter radiation and protect the health of their employees.
