When it comes to radiation protection aprons, the decision often comes down to lead-free versus traditional lead. Lead-free aprons are lighter, eco-friendly, and easier on the body, making them a popular choice for long imaging sessions. Traditional lead aprons remain a gold standard for proven, consistent shielding performance in medical imaging safety. Both styles are available from a host of our top named manufactures, and our team can help determine which works best for your staff’s workflow, modality, and comfort preferences.

Choosing Lead or Non-Lead - If you wear aprons for long procedures, have back problems or simply want a lighter apron, then you might want to consider non-lead also called Lead-Free aprons. These aprons are not only lighter than the lead apron options, but they also provide the same amount of protection. If the weight of the apron isn't a concern for you, then the traditional lightweight lead aprons  are still a good choice because they are more affordable than the non-lead aprons

Radiation protection aprons are worn for hours at a time, so comfort isn’t just a luxury—it’s essential. Lightweight lead aprons and lead-free aprons can reduce fatigue, improve posture, and make long procedures more manageable without compromising on radiation safety. While cheap aprons may seem appealing, they often lack the durability, craftsmanship, and premium shielding materials found in top radiation protection brands like Guardian, Infab, Protech, Burlington, and Shielding.

Choosing a comfortable radiation apron from a trusted source ensures both safety and longevity for your gear. Keep in mind that protection levels will also affect the weight of a garment. Some garments are now available in .25mm, .35mm, and .50mm.  Different states have different radiation safety regulations, so check with your safety officer or state regulators to know what minimal levels of PB protection are acceptable for your radiation imaging safety needs.
