Every day, doctors and staff step into the angio suite or cath lab trusting their lead aprons, shields, and gear to keep them safe from radiation. But what happens when that protection isn’t enough... or when it starts breaking down?

In this episode of Radiation Station, we sit down with Dr. Bella Hausen to talk about protecting the protectors: why safeguarding the very gear that shields us is just as important as wearing it. We’ll cover:

  • How protective equipment really works (and where it can fail)
  • Why regular checks and smarter design matter more than you think
  • The role of culture and awareness in reducing long-term radiation risk

It’s a conversation that pulls back the curtain on an issue too many in medicine overlook — and one that could literally save lives.

Tune in. Shield up.
