Radiation-Shielding Products

By HospiMedica staff writers
Posted on 19 Oct 2005
A line of radiation-shielding products has been developed, including shielding for x-ray rooms, personnel protection, lead screens, lead doors, lead glass windows, workstations, film viewers, RF cages for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners, and MR-compatible products incorporating patient handling, monitoring systems, patient safety, comfort, and care with a wide range of accessories.

Wardray Premise Ltd. More...
(Surrey, UK) is a long-established manufacturer of radiation-shielding products. The company's innovative Relax & View video relaxation system is designed to relax the anxious patient while being scanned with audio to the patient through the scanners' own audio system or through the Wardray audio relaxation system. The patient views the screen via a mirror mounted on the head coil or attached to the table top with a suitable mount.

The Safeview CCTV camera has been designed for use in MRI scanners and allows the operator a clear view of the patient. The system is operated totally from the control room and viewed via a full-color, flat panel monitor. The company's range of transportation systems now includes both adult and pediatric trolleys, portering chairs, and wheelchairs. The adjustable height trolley works using a power-assisted foot operated hydraulic pump to raise and lower the bed.
