TZ Medical Expands the URPro Radiation Protection System with Two New Modular Solutions
New URPro Hanger and URPro Insert Kit Help Facilities Restore, Upgrade, and Expand Lower-Body Radiation Protection
Radiation protection systems play a critical role in helping protect physicians, nurses, technologists, and clinical staff from scatter radiation during imaging procedures. Yet many facilities face a common challenge: maintaining effective shielding over time without replacing costly assemblies or compromising workflow.
To address these challenges, TZ Medical is expanding the URPro Radiation Protection System with two new solutions: the URPro Hanger and URPro Insert Kit.
Together, these products give Cath Labs, Interventional Radiology suites, Office-Based Labs (OBLs), and Ambulatory Surgery Centers (ASCs) additional options for restoring, upgrading, and customizing lower-body radiation protection.
The Advantage of a Modular Approach
Traditional lower-body shielding systems often rely on large, one-piece panel assemblies. When these assemblies become damaged, worn, or difficult to clean, facilities may be faced with expensive replacements and unnecessary downtime.
The URPro family was developed around a different philosophy: modular protection.
Instead of replacing an entire shielding assembly, facilities can replace individual panels as needed. This approach helps reduce replacement costs, simplify maintenance, and extend the life of existing radiation protection systems.
The addition of the URPro Hanger and URPro Insert Kit further expands the flexibility of the URPro platform.
Introducing the URPro Hanger
The new URPro Hanger provides a stable mounting platform for URPro Adapter Panels beneath imaging table controls.

n many procedural environments, staff spend significant time positioned near table controls where traditional shielding options may be limited. The URPro Hanger helps address this challenge by creating a dedicated mounting point for modular lower-body shielding while maintaining normal table operation.
Key benefits include:
- Supports multiple URPro Adapter Panels
- Maintains access to imaging table controls
- Lightweight design for everyday clinical use
- Ideal for Cath Labs, IR suites, OBLs, and ASCs
By positioning protection where staff work most often, the URPro Hanger helps facilities enhance lower-body radiation protection without disrupting workflow.
Introducing the URPro Insert Kit
The URPro Insert Kit is designed for facilities looking to modernize compatible lower-body shielding systems.
The insert mounts directly to supported shielding hardware and allows facilities to replace original shielding panels with modular URPro replacement panels. Rather than replacing an entire shield assembly, users can replace only the individual sections that require attention.
Key benefits include:
- Utilizes existing shielding system hardware
- Supports modular URPro replacement panels
- Fits directly to the UT-70 table bar and extension arm
- Helps reduce long-term replacement costs
- Simplifies maintenance and panel replacement
The result is a practical upgrade path that extends the life of existing shielding systems while preserving effective staff protection.
Building a Complete Radiation Protection Platform
With the addition of the URPro Hanger and URPro Insert Kit, the URPro Radiation Protection System now offers facilities a broader range of solutions for lower-body shielding.
The URPro family includes:
- URPro Shield Drape Panels
- URPro Adapter Panels
- URPro Insert Kit
- URPro Hanger
- URPro Upper Shield Panels
- URPro Overhead Shield
Together, these products provide facilities with flexible options for replacing damaged panels, upgrading existing systems, and adding protection where it is needed most.
