A device for protection of a body from radiation includes at least one flexible garment. Each section of the flexible garment is configured to shield a region of a surface of the body. Each section complementarily attenuates self-shielding by internal structure between the region and an interior region of the body such that radiation at the interior region is attenuated to a predefined attenuation level.

The present invention relates to radiation-shielding clothing for limiting the radiation exposure of radiographers and assistants at the time of radiography by using a lightweight lead-free sheet shielding X-rays, the radiation-shielding clothing including: a top main body including a torso portion; and a shielding sheet, at least a part thereof being capable of being coupled to or detached from the top main body using attachment and detachment means, wherein the shielding sheet contains a substrate of a resin material and tungsten or tungsten oxide powder.

A radiology garment storage and cleaning system, for storing and cleaning radiology garments, each garment including a radiology apron and a radiology collar. The radiology garment storage and cleaning system includes a storage apparatus, which is divided into a number of compartments for accepting a radiology garment, the compartments extending from the first side to the second side. Each compartment is equipped with a cleaning system, a door with a lock and at least one status light. The storage apparatus also includes an ID card and a monitoring system which is in electronic communication with the ID card reader, the lock of each compartment, each of the cleaning mechanisms, and the status light of each compartment. The monitoring system is configured to monitor when the radiology garment is placed in one of the compartments, automate the cleaning of the garment, and track the garment's usage.

It is a clothing or accessory for protection against ionizing radiation comprising a body of flexible material threadable by an operator and reinforcing protection means comprising of one or more layers or plates protecting against ionizing radiation integrated within said body. The garment comprises at least two parts, each provided with a magnetic element for setting, adjusting, arranging or closing the garment or accessory when one of the parts is activated by the operator to cooperate with the other part. Each magnetic element is composed of at least two groups each comprising at least one positive magnet and at least one negative magnet, the groups of the same magnetic element being set directly or indirectly on the same support and/or between them and being able to co-operate with the groups of opposing polarities of the other magnetic element.
