European Government-Certified Protection CVP-2 Filter Leads the Market in C-Arm Safety

When evaluating medical equipment that impacts doctor and patient safety, clinical efficacy and regulatory validation are non-negotiable.

If you operate C-arm fluoroscopy devices daily, you already know that standard lead aprons leave your head, eyes, and hands exposed to secondary scattered radiation. But how can you be sure an add-on radiation filter actually delivers on its promises?

The answer lies in rigorous, independent European research.

Backed by European Atomic Energy Authority (SANAEM) & University Testing

The performance of the CVP-2 Radiation Reduction Filter is not just based on internal lab tests. It was independently evaluated through clinical trials conducted by the Turkish Atomic Energy Authority (SANAEM / TAEK) in collaboration with the Department of Radiology at Ufuk University Hospital, requested directly by the Ministry of Health and the Turkish Medicines and Medical Devices Agency (TITCK).

Utilizing a human-equivalent Rando Phantom and precision radiation detectors under real operating room conditions, the official report verified the filter's performance:

Key Evaluation Metrics	Standard Protection (Lead Apron Only)	With CVP-2 Radiation Filter	Certified Clinical Impact
Radiation Dose Level	High exposure to scattered radiation	Up to 72% Dose Reduction	Significantly lowers occupational radiation risks
Protected Body Zones	Torso & Thyroid only	Eyes, Head, Hands, Feet, & Skin	Covers critical body parts left exposed by aprons
X-Ray Image Quality	Baseline Contrast	Enhanced Image Contrast	Maintains high diagnostic clarity for complex procedures

Why European Radiation Experts Endorse Source-Level Filtration

Selective Absorption Technology: Medical professionals often fear that filters lower beam energy and create dark, blurry images. The CVP-2 filter selectively filters out low-energy scatter rays that degrade image contrast. The result? Up to 72% less scatter radiation with a sharper, clearer view on the monitor.
Complies with Stricter ICRP Standards: As the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) drastically tightened the annual eye dose limit from 150 mSv to 20 mSv, European healthcare providers are shifting toward fundamental shielding directly at the source—the C-arm tube itself.

Why Scatter Radiation Matters in C-Arm Fluoroscopy

In fluoroscopy, X-rays interact with the patient’s tissues, generating secondary scatter rays that reflect toward the operator. The closer a person stands to the C-arm, the higher the cumulative exposure. Studies have shown that scatter levels can reach several hundred microsieverts per hour near the operator’s hands during orthopedic procedures. During C-arm fluoroscopy, every image produced also generates invisible scatter radiation. This secondary radiation spreads around the operator — especially hands and arms — and can accumulate over years of repeated exposure. While modern imaging prioritizes patient protection, the safety of medical professionals is equally vital. Without proper protection, the people who guide every precise movement under the C-arm face unnecessary risk. Recognizing this risk is only the first step. Real improvement begins with action — using dedicated solutions designed to reduce scatter radiation without disrupting daily workflow. Certified tools su...

An External Way to Reduce Scatter Radiation — Without Interfering With Your C-arm Workflow

C-arm image quality is established by the device and by the clinical decisions made during each procedure. Our role is not to adjust, replace, or reinterpret those parameters. Instead, we focus on a different part of the environment: The scattered radiation moves outward toward the operator. This portion of radiation is not needed for diagnosis, yet it contributes to long-term occupational exposure. Our external filter is designed to reduce that specific component — working alongside your current setup, not inside it. Works outside the imaging chain The filter attaches externally and functions independently of: kVp or mA settings detector sensitivity contrast or density adjustments device brand or model Once it's set, Clinical teams continue using their established imaging routines. The filter simply operates in the surrounding space where scatter is generated. Designed to maintain your clinical workflow No additional steps. No software. No recalibration....

Reduce C-arm Scattered Radiation Before It Reaches You

Scatter radiation in C-arm fluoroscopy has long been treated like background noise—always there, rarely questioned. But in reality, it shapes the exposure environment of every operating room. This isn’t a problem of machine performance or operator technique. It is, at its core, a geometry problem , expanding through space before PPE ever has a chance to block it. When the primary beam passes through the patient, it immediately transforms into multi-directional scatter. The pattern never changes. Longer fluoroscopy time means more scatter. Angle variations widen the spread. And the operator’s hands, eyes, and thyroid often sit closer to the field than any other part of the body, collecting dose simply because of proximity. This is why PPE alone can’t solve the issue. Lead aprons, thyroid shields, and gloves protect the body—but only after scatter reaches it . By the time PPE steps in, scatter has already expanded into the room, filling the operating space with exposure that acc...
