The Veterinary field may receive some of the highest doses of radiation to the hand because of the frequent holding of pets during imaging. Chronic irradiation of the hands is a principle concern. NIOSH: The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health guidelines state that no part of the body should be directly exposed to radiation. If there is a danger of exposing a body part, that appropriate protection must be used. Shield hands from the harmful effects of exposure by using a full 360 degree protection.
