Gonad Shield(BARC-Approved)

An Ovarian Shield is a dedicated radiation protection accessory designed specifically to protect the female ovaries during X-ray and diagnostic imaging procedures.

Since ovaries are highly radiosensitive and play a vital role in fertility and hormonal health, shielding them from unnecessary radiation exposure is essential—especially in children and women of reproductive age.
