GET PROTEGO – GET PROTECTED! 

A new study** shows PROTEGO can reduce
detectable radiation by 98.6 to 100%

EXCERPT

A clinical comparative study at HonorHealth Research Institute shows a substantial drop in laboratory radiation, with most cases producing undetectable radiation exposure to cardiology staff.

In nearly 70% of the cases, radiation exposure to the physicians and nurses was so low as to be “undetectable” using real-time dosimetry.
