Background: Nowadays, ionizing radiation is increasingly used in medicine. One of the most frequent X-ray examinations is pelvic radiography. Gonads are susceptible in the pelvic area. Gonadal shielding (GS) is a useful method to reduce the received dose by gonads. Despite the benefits of using gonadal shielding, it is rarely used by radiographers. Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out in ten governmental hospitals with 300 radiographs. Results: The radiographers’ knowledge of using GS had a value equal to 59.1%. However, the radiographers did not have enough information on the subject, although their awareness about the significance of GS was acceptable. Conclusions: Although the radiographers believed in the necessity of using GS for pelvic, abdominal, and spine examinations, they used no shields.
