ABSTRACT:
A self-supporting radiation shield includes a radiation protective sheet; and a skeletal frame for supporting the radiation protective sheet, the skeletal frame including a lower frame member including a semi-elliptical tubular base member mounted on casters and three vertically oriented outer telescoping members extending upwardly therefrom, an upper frame member including a semi-elliptical tubular chest member and three vertically oriented inner telescoping members telescopically received within the outer telescoping members for vertical adjustment therewith, and two arm hooks extending forwardly in an upwardly inclined manner from the free ends of the tubular chest member to permit arms of the user to extend in front of the shield while protecting the front and side portions of the body of the user, and a locking assembly for releasably locking the inner telescoping members at a desired vertical position with respect to the outer telescoping members, the radiation protective sheet being connected to the upper frame member and being wrapped about the upper and lower frame members such that the arcuate upper and lower frame members define a partial enclosure in which the radiation protective sheet protects front and side portions of a user's body from radiation when the user is positioned within the partial enclosure.
