Australian Imaging understand safety is paramount in all areas where x-ray is used. That's why we only use the best lead glass that exceeds all international standards, manufactured by Nippon Electric Glass.
LX-57B
Because of its excellent radiation shielding capability and high light transmittance, radiation shielding lead glass LX-57B of Nippon Electric Glass (NEG) has many medical and laboratory applications, as well as being widely used in nuclear power industries. LX-57B is JIS certified, has excellent transparency, and is available in very large sizes, up to 1200x2600mm, for use in observation and operation windows in X-ray TV rooms, CT scanning rooms and angiography rooms where a wider field of vision is required.
