Lead Shielding for Medi-RayTM • Lead shielding for radiation is a useful tool in accomplishing radiation protection for x-ray applications used in medical technology. • Utilizing lead castings, sheet lead and lead foil, Medi-Ray™ has developed clinic, laboratory and medical office products for all x-ray applications.

  4. Lead Shielding for Medi-RayTM • Lead x-ray shields offer advanced protection to guard specific body parts on the patient or technician during x-ray procedures. • X-ray shielding can be done using lead sheets of 2 mm thickness. Mobile x-ray barriers can be mounted on wheels and moved around.

  5. Medi-Ray's lead components are utilized in a wide variety of security environments from port security to air-line baggage, mail and freight applications. Medi-Ray's goal is to simplify the prototype to production process and maintain the highest level of quality.

  6. Radiation Safety Measures • Reducing the time of exposure as this reduces the dose proportionally. • Increasing distance to reduce dose. This can be done by making use of forceps to handle a source rather than using the fingers. • Shielding to reduce radiation to a level that is suitable for humans. Shielding can be done by placing a mass of absorbing material around the radioactive source.

  7. Lead Radiation Shielding • Shielding may include lead sheets in the walls surrounding an x-ray room, lead glass or screens on the viewing room for operator safety, and lead aprons for patients to wear. .

  8. Lead Radiation Shielding • Lead is used to produce X-Ray shielded products ranging from lead syringe shielding, shipping containers, laboratory accessories, lead sheet, lead bricks etc. • Lead containers are also available for shielding instruments from x-rays.
