They aren’t even in the same room. They have a special walled booth. They’ve given me a vest when having my arm up out on a table. Seems somebody needs better equipment or better training
Mate, you really need to read better LOL, like I said in my first comment, it’s for fluoroscopy or X-ray assisted surgery
And the lead garment was bullshit as I have been telling you for a bunch of times now. Read up about x-ray machines and collimation before you accuse someone of not knowing what they’re talking about because you had an X-ray a few times xD
But who you originally responded to wasn’t talking about the fluoroscope. They meant in general, that’s why I said they meant the vest the patient wears. Also during my fluoroscope I was bare obviously but the doctors had aprons for obvious reasons.
Reading online its only more modern equipment that has good colluminarion adjustments, older equipment is still suggesting using patient protection, per the original comment
Yes. The patient isn’t supposed to wear a garment in general is what I said. Again, read please.
And “modern” is anything that was built in the last 50 years or so. So no, it’s not common practice to put lead garments on the patient and it’s simply a matter of the technologist being too lazy to collimate properly.
It totally is. Even when I got tooth xrays 2 years ago where the machine is right against your jaw and film plate is in mouth they still put the lead vest over me.
If they did it was totally unnecessary, as I’ve told you many times over now. And the few X rays you’ve had are hardly proof now is it? Nor does it tell us what the current standards of care are.
I think you dont know and are doing by chatgpt results.
Few xrays. Lol. I had several surgeries that required xrays as well as tumors, and my kids had broken bone xrays, and dental. It’s always the vest or apron.
I’m not claiming it is necessary, I’m telling you what they do here, and why a person was asking about vests

Its 100% common here in Canada
Maybe in the past, but not anymore.
