Take Care of Your Skin by Using Biocompatible Gloves
The PROGUARD Radiation Reducing Latex Based Gloves have the same anatomic shape, size, softness, elasticity, comfort, and dexterity typical of surgical gloves.
They are a sterile, powder-free surgeon's gloves to be worn by hospital personnel, specifically surgeons, to protect their hands from radiation during operation of x-ray equipment whenever a high degree of protection and tactile sensitivity is needed. The main purpose of these gloves is to reduce the amount of dispersed radiation exposure to the hands from the primary x-ray beam during surgical procedures under fluoroscopy performance.
