Pillow and Corner Head Flip Shield
Pillow and Corner Head Flip Shields provide additional head and shoulder scatter protection for
staff working
near the patient’s head during procedures. The Pillow Flip Shield attaches to the
head rail and can be lowered for patient loading and then raised to block scatter radiation
emitting from the patient’s head area. Both the left and right Corner Head Flip Shield are
positioned around the top mattress and can be easily removed.
The Corner Head Flip Shield provides radiation protection built into the top and bottom of the
base which is positioned over the corner of the two-tier mattress. The side flip shield is lowered
during patient loading and raised for radiation protection after the patient is loaded and before a
sterile drape is placed on the patient.
