Liberty Shielding is carefully designed to work with a wide range of healthcare facilities, such as medical offices and hospitals, using an innovative solution called X-ray lead glass to greatly reduce radiation exposure.

Our Best X-Ray Lead Glass Products 

We have meticulously crafted our X-ray lead glass solutions to cater to a diverse range of healthcare settings, including hospitals, pharmacies, and medical offices. Our best X-ray lead glass is 2 mm thick and has a tolerance of +/- 0.030″. It lets more than 85% of light through and has a minimum heavy metal oxide content of 60%, which means it protects you from radiation perfectly. This glass needs extra care as it can absorb harsh chemicals, leaving permanent stains. To clean and maintain the glass, you need microfiber cloths and non-abrasive cleaners.

Furthermore, get an array of customization options to suit your specific requirements, including a variety of glass sizes for your convenience listed below.

Why Is It Necessary To Install X-ray Lead Glass?

Some key reasons why X-ray lead glass is a crucial component in ensuring patient safety in radiology are:

Radiation Protection

The primary and most significant rationale lies in shielding individuals, be it patients, healthcare professionals, or visitors, from the harmful ionizing radiation generated by medical imaging equipment. This protection is crucial to avert acute and chronic radiation exposure, which can result in adverse health effects, including tissue damage and an elevated risk of cancer.

Compliance With Regulations

Regulatory bodies and healthcare organizations mandate the implementation of radiation safety measures, which encompass the use of lead glass, in order to adhere to stringent safety and quality standards. Ensuring compliance with these regulations is imperative to maintain the licensure and accreditation of healthcare facilities.

Enhanced Performance

X-Ray Lead Glass possesses the unique capability to permit the transmission of visible light while effectively blocking harmful radiation. This dual functionality is instrumental in producing high-quality radiographic and fluoroscopic images, which are indispensable for accurate diagnoses and the delivery of effective medical treatment.

Minimized Scatter Radiation

Scatter radiation, a byproduct of X-ray interactions with human tissue and other objects, is effectively managed by lead glass. This containment of scatter radiation not only improves image clarity but also reduces the radiation exposure of individuals in the vicinity.

Prolonged Equipment Durability

Medical imaging equipment, including X-ray and radiological machines, constitutes substantial investments for healthcare facilities. The application of lead glass safeguards the delicate components of this equipment from radiation-induced damage, thereby extending their operational lifespan and diminishing maintenance costs.
