The thyroid is a radiation-sensitive organ of the human body and therefore in particular need of protection. Wearing appropriate protection during dose-intensive examinations should therefore always be a matter of course.

With a permanently sewn-on hook & burr closure in the neck as standard, the thyroid and sternum protection is optionally also available with an exchangeable hook & burr closure or a practical magnetic closure*.
