Medline X-Ray Detectable Blue Foam Suture Boots permit surgeons to
handle sutures without risking damage. They come packaged in foam blocks for
convenient counting and are observable by x-rays. The inner diameter of standard
boots is 0.0622" (0.16 cm), while the inner diameter of large boots is 0.0931"
(0.24 cm). The tips of instruments and thermostats shield sutures and make
handling and identification simple.
