FAQs
Q.Are thyroid collars necessary for dental xrays?
A.Thyroid collars are required for radiographic examinations if they do not interfere with the procedure. The thyroid gland is an extremely radiosensitive organ and is susceptible to tumors due to radiation exposure.
Q.What is thyroid collar?
A.A thyroid guard or thyroid shield is a lead collar that wraps around your neck to block the radiation that's generated in making X-ray images.
Q.What are lead aprons for?
A.Lead aprons are the primary radiation protective garments used by personnel during fluoroscopy. The radiation protection provided by a lead apron is approximately the same as 0.25- to 1-mm thick lead. An apron with 0.5-mm thickness can attenuate approximately 90% or more of the scatter radiation.
