Product Overview

The X-Ray Ruler is a measuring instrument intended for radiographic work. It measures 500 mm (19 3/4″) in length and features graduations at 0.5 cm intervals. Its extended measuring length and clearly specified scale make it suitable for measurement tasks where a centimetre-based reference is required during X-ray work.

Applications and Care

The ruler is intended for use in vascular surgery, orthopaedics and traumatology, neurosurgery, and cardiac and thoracic surgery. Selection should be based on the measurement requirements of the procedure and the need for a 500 mm scale with half-centimetre graduations.

The instrument is supplied non-sterile and is reusable. Before clinical use, clean, inspect, and sterilize it according to the manufacturer’s instructions and the healthcare facility’s validated reprocessing procedures. Check that the graduations remain legible and that the ruler is in suitable condition for measurement.
