Radiation is widely used in medicine for diagnosis and treatment of various diseases. However, exposure to ionizing radiation can also pose potential health risks for both patients and health workers. Therefore, it is important to use radiation protection products in healthcare settings to minimize the radiation dose and prevent unnecessary exposure.

 

Radiation protection products are devices or materials that can reduce or block the radiation from reaching the body or sensitive organs. They can be classified into two categories: personal protective equipment (PPE) and shielding materials.

 

Personal protective equipment (PPE) are worn by health workers or patients to protect themselves from direct or scattered radiation. Some of the common PPE are:

 

- Lead aprons, or light-weight lead-free aprons, that cover the torso and prevent radiation from reaching the chest, abdomen and pelvis.

- Lead glasses or goggles, that protect the eyes from radiation-induced cataracts.

- Protective thyroid collars, that shield the thyroid gland from radiation exposure.

- Radiation reduction gloves, that reduce the dose to the hands during interventional procedures.

 

Shielding materials are used to create barriers or enclosures that can attenuate the radiation and reduce the exposure to the surrounding environment.

 

One of the leading manufacturers of radiation protection devices is Trivitron Healthcare, which offers a wide range of products under its brand name Trinitron. Trinitron products are designed to provide high quality, comfort and safety for health workers and patients. Some of the Trinitron products are:
