Second: according to radiation experts, most of the anti radiation clothes used by pregnant women are used to isolate electromagnetic waves, which have no effect on X-rays and gamma rays of ionizing radiation. Most of the anti radiation clothing is made of metal wire. Because the metal wire is folded and rubbed repeatedly, it is easy to lose the effect, so it is difficult to guarantee the quality after a long time. It is harmful for pregnant women to be exposed to ionizing radiation such as X-ray and gamma ray during pregnancy, but the protective clothing for isolating ionizing radiation must contain a certain amount of lead, so this kind of clothing will be very bulky.
