Radiation Protection Lead Barrier (Single Panel)
Free!
This single-panel radiation protection lead barrier provides fast, mobile shielding from scatter during imaging and interventional work. A full-height panel and clear viewing window help teams stay protected while maintaining visibility and access. Locking casters, ergonomic handles, and easy-clean surfaces keep workflow smooth in tight rooms. Choose it to lower exposure, meet safety goals, and position protection exactly where it’s needed—without renovations or complicated setup.
Description
A Radiation Protection Lead Barrier (Single Panel) is a mobile shield used to protect staff from scatter radiation during imaging and interventional procedures. The single, full-height panel contains a radiation-attenuating core and typically includes a clear viewing window so clinicians can maintain eye contact with the patient and the field. Locking casters let the barrier roll into position quickly, then stay firmly in place. Smooth, wipe-clean surfaces support infection-control routines and daily turnover.
Key features and benefits:
-
Full-height single panel for reliable torso and head protection
-
Optional lead glass or lead-acrylic window for unobstructed visibility
-
Heavy-duty frame with rounded edges to resist impact and ease cleaning
-
Locking casters for quick positioning and stable use
-
Ergonomic push handles that improve maneuverability in tight rooms
-
Durable finishes that tolerate routine disinfectants
Common use cases and applications:
-
Fluoroscopy suites, Cath labs, and interventional radiology
-
Portable X-ray at bedside or in emergency departments
-
Pain management, urology, and endoscopy rooms using C-arms
-
Dental and veterinary imaging rooms needing flexible shielding
-
Teaching labs where multiple observers require protection
How it compares:
-
Single-panel barriers are simpler, narrower, and easier to maneuver than multi-panel or folding screens, making them ideal for compact rooms and quick case turnover.
-
Compared to fixed wall shields, mobiles provide protection precisely where needed without construction work.
Quality and compliance notes:
-
Facilities typically select barriers with clearly stated lead-equivalence ratings for both the panel and viewing window and verify testing against recognized regional standards. Incorporating mobile shielding supports ALARA principles by reducing exposure without slowing workflow.
