Lead X-Ray Blocker
Though x-ray machines are a beneficial technology, their use of radioactivity to obtain internal body images can be potentially dangerous to patients and staff. Utilizing x-ray sheets to minimize exposure is an often used process. Lead sheeting is the best-known way to protect individuals from harmful excess radiation during x-ray procedures. An x-ray sheet helps by blocking the radioactivity from penetrating unnecessary areas. Your patients and staff will appreciate having these radiation protecting sheets present in the room to minimize their exposure.
Universal Medical knows that safety is crucial to your business, so we provide terrific quality x-ray sheets. These lead blockers come in a large selection of dimensions to best accommodate the amount of space you need covered. Both sides of the radiation shielding sheets are coated in vinyl so that they may be cleaned easily for reuse. Order your radiology blockers in either 0.5mm or 1mm lead equivalency.
If the precut radiation vinyl lead sheets are not the appropriate size for your needs, check out Universal Medicals lead sheeting that is custom cut to your specifications. The x-ray sheets are priced by square foot and are available in 0.25, 0.5, and 1mm lead equivalency.
