Medical Lead Cap Radiation Head Shield

An Lead Hat Xray Lead Cap is a type of protective headgear that is worn by individuals who work with or are exposed to X-ray radiation. It is designed to shield the head and brain from the harmful effects of ionizing radiation. The Lead Shielded Caps are typically made of lead or other radiation-absorbing materials, which are highly effective in blocking X-rays. Lead is commonly used due to its high atomic number, which enables it to absorb X-ray photons effectively. The cap is lined with lead or lead-equivalent material, providing a barrier between the radiation source and the wearer's head. Wearing an X-ray lead radiation cap can help reduce the risk of radiation exposure to the brain, which is particularly sensitive to ionizing radiation. It is commonly used by medical professionals, such as radiologists, radiologic technologists, and interventional radiologists, who frequently work with X-ray equipment. In addition to the Radiation Safety Caps, individuals working with X-ra…
