Safe protection for the lower body

Lower body protection systems are an integral part of every radioation protection concept for interventional radiology. They reduce secondary radiation substantially. Optimal protection is ensured only with the combination of ceiling-suspended radiation protection and lower body protection with upper shield. The ceiling-suspended system and the examiner’s shield then protect the examiner against secondary radioation emanating from the body of the patient. The lower body protection absorbs radation underneath the table and shields the lower extremities and genital area of the examiner.
