This lower body shield substantially reduces exposure to scatter radiation emanating from the table or patient’s body.
The shield comprises a lightweight and durable structure, with a central friction maintaining pivot link and pivotal arm supporting a flexible lead curtain.
A unique patented mechanism enables the pivotal arm to move up when in collision with C-arm equipment.

FEATURES
· The shield easily mounts to either side of the table allowing the pivotal arm to always face the head end.
· Mechanism enables the pivotal arm to move up when in collision with C-arm
· A 51 cm wide attachment bracket slides onto a 25 mm high tableside accessory rail (maximum 11 mm thick). The securing handle position allows the shield to overhang the rail end and be repositioned further along the table if required.
· The central pivot has an automatic wear adjustment facility ensuring accurate joint friction which prevents unwanted curtain movement even when the table is tilted in any direction.
· Equipment controls can be mounted on the large 350mm integrated rail and grouped with others close by on the adjacent tableside rail.
· The semi-flexible 57 cm wide top and be quickly an easily removed as required to aid patient access.
. Low weight : 12,5 Kg

FLEXIBLE X-RAY PROTECTIVE CURTAINS
· The curtain forms a large (114 cm wide x 70 cm high) safe zone of occupancy for the Radiologist (or Cardiologist) and another person standing near by.
· The curtain forms around an under table x-ray tube without impeding movement.
· The curtains inner 0.5mm lead equivalent layer is bonded to its outer covering. As the protective layer is not suspended separately in a cover (bag), it cannot tear or fall away inside unnoticed.
· The pivotal arm and middle link can swivel outwards from the table side to form a 46 cm or 63 cm wing, or inwards to conform to the shape of the table.
