Description

A lead thyroid shield is a protective device worn around the neck and thyroid gland during medical imaging procedures to shield this sensitive area from ionizing radiation. It is specifically designed to cover the thyroid gland, which is located in the front of the neck, to minimize radiation exposure during X-ray examinations, fluoroscopy, or other imaging procedures involving the head and neck region. Lead thyroid shields are typically made of lead or lead-equivalent materials, which are highly effective at attenuating ionizing radiation, thereby reducing the risk of radiation-induced damage to the thyroid gland and surrounding tissues. They are essential personal protective equipment (PPE) for ensuring the safety of patients and minimizing radiation exposure to critical organs during medical imaging.
