Lead markers are frequently used in X-ray examinations to indicate anatomical landmarks and provide patient information. Radiographic markers are positioned in the corners of X-ray films, conveying image orientation and important details such as patient name, date, and side markers. It’s crucial to consider that the placement of lead markers can vary depending on the imaging facility, examination type, and the preferences of radiographers.
Lead markers indicating the right or left side are essential in medical imaging for accurate interpretation and effective communication among healthcare professionals. They provide crucial information about the orientation and positioning of anatomical structures. These markers enable proper identification and differentiation between the two sides of the body, which is especially relevant in imaging studies involving asymmetry or laterality, such as fractures, joint conditions, or surgical procedures. Radiologists and healthcare professionals can easily determine the imaged side by utilizing right or left lead markers, ensuring precise diagnosis and treatment planning. The consistent use of these markers facilitates proper comparison of images over time, aiding in monitoring changes and progress in the patient’s condition.
Our goal at Phillips Safety is to provide customers with high-quality lead markers. That being said, our lead markers start at $8.00, with many options to choose from.
