ADDITIONAL PROTECTION DURING SURGICAL PROCEDURES
RISING TO THE CHALLENGE
The global topic of axillary & breast protection is currently at the forefront of radiation safety as some procedures can expose clinicians to ionising radiation in this anatomical area.
The first line of defence is always a well-fitted lead apron. Selecting the right size apron and armhole is always the best approach. However, in most cases it is challenging to incorporate suitable axilla protection when the arm is in a raised position, exposing radio-sensitive tissues.
This is where the mammo-shield™ comes in. Specially designed to sit comfortably under the arm and move with the wearer to help provide protection in this vulnerable area.
Designed Alongside Surgeons
The Mammo-shield™ has been designed alongside female surgeons to provide a comfortable, easy to apply shielding that can be worn with any existing apron design.
