Fluoroscopy is a crucial medical imaging technique that grants real-time visualization of internal structures using X-rays. While immensely valuable diagnostically, it also poses risks due to radiation exposure, not just to patients but also to the technicians performing the procedure. Ensuring adequate protection through appropriate attire and gear is paramount in minimizing these risks.
Unlike conventional X-ray imaging, fluoroscopy involves prolonged exposure to radiation, elevating the absorbed dose for both patients and technicians. Therefore, investing in radiation protective wear is indispensable for those involved in conducting these procedures.
Lead Apron: A lead apron is the cornerstone of radiation protection attire for fluoroscopy technicians. Its dense material effectively shields against harmful radiation, safeguarding vital organs from potential damage.
Thyroid Shield: Given the proximity of the thyroid gland to the radiation source, wearing a leaded thyroid shield is imperative. This specialized gear provides targeted protection to this sensitive area, reducing the risk of radiation-induced thyroid disorders.
Lead Gloves: Hands are particularly vulnerable to radiation exposure during fluoroscopy procedures. Lead gloves offer crucial protection, preventing radiation from penetrating through the skin and causing harm.
Leaded Eyewear: Eyes are highly susceptible to radiation damage. Hence, wearing leaded eyewear is non-negotiable for fluoroscopy technicians. These specialized glasses effectively block radiation, shielding the eyes from potential harm.
