The staff members working in Radiology department in hospitals, wear shoes with special soles. Justify

Radiology departments in hospitals use x-rays, MRIs, CT scans, etc. on a daily basis, meaning they are heavily exposed to radiation without protective equipment, and said exposure can cause cancer down the line and shorten their life significantly. To prevent this from happening, they give the radiologist (and the patient) with equipment with lead (and other materials) which reflects or absorbs the radiation from these scans, including shoes with special soles. These shoes are most likely worn due to the radiation left in the scanning room floors after scans. Radiologists also go to a special room with heavy radiation protection where they can activate and monitor the scan.
