X-Ray Protection Lead Spron With Protective Sleeves 0.35mmPb 0.5mmPb
Lead protective equipment is an essential tool for protecting staff
during X-ray exposures. Lead aprons are an important piece of
radiation protection equipment that are designed to attenuate
ionizing radiation. It is recommended that protective lead aprons
offer a minimum of 0.25 mm lead equivalent, check your state’s
regulations for specific requirements on lead equivalency.
Commonly, the minimum requirement of lead equivalency for an
occupational worker not standing in the primary beam is 0.25 mm.
Lead aprons cover approximately 75% – 80% of a person’s active bone
marrow. The amount of attenuation provided by a lead apron will
depend on several factors including the overall physical condition
of the lead within the apron, how it is worn, the lead equivalency
of the apron, and the energy (kVp) of the x-ray beam.
Percentage of Ionizing Radiation Blocked by Lead Aprons (kVp’s)
0.25 mm lead equivalent (Pb) offers the following levels of protection at the selected kVp’s:
97% at 50 kVp
66% at 75 kVp
51% at 100 kVp
0.50 mm lead equivalent (Pb) offers the following levels of
protection at the selected kVp’s:
99.9% at 50 kVp
88% at 75 kVp
76% at 100 kVp
