A shield made of nano-sized tungsten particles was fabricated using eco-friendlymaterials to protect organs and gonads in the abdomen of children who are sensitive to abdominaland pelvic X-ray examination. We would like to evaluate its usefulness through dose evaluation. During the abdominal and pelvic X-ray examination of children, there was a dose reduction ofabout 60% in ESD values before and after the use of the shield. If the Nano Tungsten shield iscommercialized and used, it is believed that exposure doses for pediatric patients’ radiation-relatedtests such as general X-ray imaging, CT examination, and fluoroscopic examination can be reduced.
