Lead is essential to safe, effective and sustainable medical imaging

By International Lead Association 4th November, 2020

Medical imaging has revolutionised the diagnosis and treatment of numerous medical conditions from broken bones to cancer treatment. Millions of X-ray scans are taken daily in hospitals and clinics around the word and as access to healthcare improves globally, these numbers are set to increase.

Lead-based radiation shielding is currently the most effective and cost-efficient way to safeguard the use of medical imaging today.
