While the MammoShield™ doesn't replace a properly fitted x-ray apron, it complements it perfectly, offering enhanced protection in areas difficult to protect with traditional lead aprons.
Through dialogues with healthcare experts and a deep comprehension of the challenges tied to the ergonomics of certain procedures, we recognised the potential risk associated with axilla exposure, which might subject clinicians to increased radiation doses in this vulnerable region.
Whilst a standard approach to protecting this area has been the addition of sleeves, we recognised (through consultation) that the additional weight this placed on the upper arm could be a source of fatigue, so we were keen to develop something that would focus on the underarm protection in a way that would move with the wearer to ensure the protection is always in place.
As Radiographers, we have real experience of 'your world' and understand the challenges better than most other companies.
This empathetic understanding, and willingness to innovate, is really what makes Rothband unique..
Our commitment to provider better solutions to healthcare professionals led to the development of the MammoShield™, and our approach was structured around four cardinal objectives:
Enhanced Protection
This state-of-the-art shield guarantees excellent protection to the axilla, harmoniously moving with the professional to safeguard during critical positions witnessed in various orthopedic procedures. Its flexible and ergonomic design ensures protection without hindering movement.
QA Accessibility
The MammoShield™ needs to perform in a 'high-flex' environment that can induce weak points and fractures in core materials. Its design allows for quick and regular X-ray screenings before each procedure, ensuring efficacy and safety.
Universal Compatibility
Superior protection should not impose a financial burden. The MammoShield™ integrates seamlessly with existing lead aprons, promoting wider coverage without necessitating new apron purchases.
Adaptive Fit
Designed with an adjustable features, the MammoShield™ accommodates various body types, helping to provide a precise and comfortable fit every time. The unique flexibility allows to shield to move with the wearer helping to ensure optimum protection.
