I am a retired nurse and recently had a series of wrist x-rays at your facility prior to seeing an ortho specialist. Your technician was lovely but I was surprised not to be offered apron protection. Considering people accumulate a great deal of radiation over a lifetime: dental x-rays, radiation from the sun, CT scans, and multiple body part x-rays, I would think it a safe, sound and prudent practise to cover bodies when we can. I requested coverage for my neck to protect my thyroid once the x-rays had commenced. The thyroid is particularly sensitive to radiation and tells a story of frequent cancers; it must be protected in an x-ray environment. I had numerous x-rays post wrist fracture while living in China. Interesting that I was covered head to toe for each. This is an easy fix. Please take the time to protect people. Thank you.
