Radiation Safety while under Fluoroscopy
Banding Centers of America uses Scatter-Ban® radiation barrier, a patented[1] accessory that’s been proven to offer clinically significant reductions (up to 99%)[2] in harmful scatter radiation exposure Data documenting this dramatic result has been scientifically demonstrated and is attached for your review.
We use the additional protection[3] of this clinically proven accessory for every procedure.
I'm certain you’ll agree that radiation safety is imperative - and the fact that we use Scatter-Ban® radiation barrier allows us to fulfill the concept of ALARA, an acronym for the phrase As Low As Reasonably Achievable, most often used in reference to chemical or radiation exposure levels.
In an ideal world, one could reduce his or her exposure to hazardous materials to zero but in reality, reducing an exposure to zero is not always possible and certain considerations will result in a small but “acceptable” level of risk.
The best way to prevent this risk from increasing is to keep exposure ALARA and Scatter-Ban directly contributes to lowering your exposure even more!
The issue of radiation exposure has also reached the national level with exposure from both diagnostic and therapeutic sources being addressed by both the U.S. Congress[4] and the FDA[5].
