Gonad Guard/Shield Set, Set of 3
A set of three gonad shields, small, medium and large, with an adjustable belt, offering 0.5mm lead equivalent protection during diagnostic X-ray procedures. It suits clinical, diagnostic and laboratory environments.
The Gonad Guard/Shield Set is used during diagnostic X-ray procedures to protect reproductive organs from unnecessary radiation exposure. The set includes three sizes, small, medium and large, so radiology staff can select the correct fit for each patient rather than relying on a single generic shield that may not sit securely.
Each shield attaches with a belt fitted with a 1 inch buckle, allowing quick, secure placement and removal between patients without slowing down a busy imaging schedule. 5mm lead equivalent protection, a standard level of shielding used in general radiography to reduce scatter radiation reaching sensitive tissue outside the primary imaging field.
The set is offered in regular lead material and in a sapphire blue finish, giving departments a choice depending on preference or existing colour coding. Gonad shields like this are routine equipment in hospital radiology departments, dental clinics and diagnostic imaging centres, used by radiographers and technicians whenever an X-ray exposure is taken near the pelvic region.
