radiation protection systems; medical procedures

Summary

The bill updates Arizona law so hospitals can let staff skip lead aprons during real‑time x‑ray cardiac catheterizations when a qualified radiation protection system is installed and used correctly. It also sets rules for when aprons must still be worn and requires real‑time dosimeters for those who work in the system’s safety zone without an apron. The change aims to maintain safety while reducing unnecessary protective gear.
