BURLINGTON PVEST EVAL Radiation Protection Vest

Maximum Lead Protection and Enhanced Lumbar Support for Extended Procedures

The BURLINGTON PVEST EVAL radiation protection vest has been specifically designed for medical imaging professionals performing long-duration procedures that require a high level of protection and exceptional comfort. Thanks to its full-overlap design and 100% lead-based protective material, it provides complete front and back coverage while helping to reduce fatigue associated with prolonged wear.

Its ergonomic design closely follows the body's shape for improved comfort and support. The enhanced lumbar support system and elastic back panel transfer a significant portion of the weight to the hips, considerably reducing the load placed on the shoulders and back. This optimised weight distribution makes the PVEST EVAL one of the most comfortable solutions for extended interventional procedures.
