Radio-resistant Surgical Gloves
X-ray attenuating surgical gloves help to reduce scatter up to 30%.
However, if hands are in the primary beam, the gloves offer little or no protection; plus the gloves drive up the unit’s mA, delivering a higher dose than necessary.
Always wear T.L.D. ring badges (toward the beam) during fluoroscopy.
Try to position your hands on the exit side of the patient, if your hands must be in the field of view.
