The protective vest keeps some Radioactive particles from hitting out body, as the X-ray uses radiation to project our bones onto a screen, etc. It helps, but also hurts. (Not physically hurting.)

X-rays are types of electromagnetic radiation that is performed to take images inside the human body. A protective vest functions as a radiation shield. The vest is in the shape of a hospital apron, and it is made up of an outer thin rubber, and an inner lead. Wearing a protective vest during an x-ray helps to reduce the exposure of the patient’s vital organs to ionizing radiation.

To which anatomical location does the crani refer?

Sliva [168]

Hmm due to some thinking and having some knowledge of the body. I believe the crani refers to the skull. Crani could be considered short for cranium which refers to the skull. I hope that this helps!
