The Thyroid Collar is a radiation protective device designed to protect the thyroid gland during X-ray examinations. It is used to reduce radiation exposure to the neck area during diagnostic imaging procedures in medical environments.
This product is designed to be worn around the neck and provides localized radiation shielding for the thyroid area. The structure allows effective protection without interfering with X-ray examinations or causing discomfort during use. The compact design makes it suitable for use in various radiology and diagnostic imaging settings.
The Thyroid Collar is manufactured using lead-based protective material and provides radiation protection equivalent to 0.5 mm Pb. This level of protection is appropriate for use during X-ray procedures where thyroid shielding is required as part of radiation safety practices.
The product features an adjustable design using Velcro at the back, allowing the length and fit to be easily adjusted. This design helps ensure secure positioning and stable protection during use.
The Thyroid Collar is commonly used in radiology departments, diagnostic imaging rooms, and medical facilities where X-ray examinations are performed. It is intended to be used as an auxiliary radiation protection device to support radiation safety during medical imaging procedures.
