Summary

This trial investigates operator radiation doses when performing standardized procedures using two different means of radiation protection, namely conventional lead shield and apron versus suspended protection system (Zero-Gravity, ZG). The performed procedure is standard endovascular aortic repair (EVAR). The hypothesis is that ZG offers superior protection for the operator.
