Comparative evaluation of radiation shielding zero gravity vs lead apron in coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention
Zero Gravity provides comparable whole-body radiation protection to Lead Aprons and reduces skin exposure. Further research is needed to address long-term impacts and enhance protective strategies in catheterization labs.
