A radiology garment storage and cleaning system, for storing and cleaning radiology garments, each garment including a radiology apron and a radiology collar. The radiology garment storage and cleaning system includes a storage apparatus, which is divided into a number of compartments for accepting a radiology garment, the compartments extending from the first side to the second side. Each compartment is equipped with a cleaning system, a door with a lock and at least one status light. The storage apparatus also includes an ID card and a monitoring system which is in electronic communication with the ID card reader, the lock of each compartment, each of the cleaning mechanisms, and the status light of each compartment. The monitoring system is configured to monitor when the radiology garment is placed in one of the compartments, automate the cleaning of the garment, and track the garment's usage.

1. A radiology garment storage and cleaning system, for storing cleaning, and tracking radiology garments, each garment including a radiology apron and a radiology collar, for use by a plurality of users, each user having an ID card with a unique identifier, comprising: a storage apparatus having a front end, a rear end, a first side extending from the front end to the rear end, a second side extending from the front end to the rear end, a top surface, and a bottom surface, the top surface and bottom surface each being connected to the front end, the rear end, the first side, and the second side, wherein the storage apparatus is divided into a plurality of compartments for accepting a radiation apron, the plurality of compartments extending from the first side to the second side, wherein each compartment spans from the front end to the rear end and extends partially from the first side to the second side,wherein each compartment is equipped with a cleaning system, a door disposed on the front end, a lock integrated with the door, and at least one status light, andwherein each compartment has a hanging mechanism and a liquid-impermeable bottom portion extending from the bottom surface;an ID card reader, disposed on the storage apparatus, wherein the ID card reader is capable of reading the ID card and determining its unique identifier; anda monitoring system, having a memory unit, and a processor, wherein the monitoring system is in electronic communication with the ID card reader, the lock of each compartment, each of the cleaning mechanisms, and the status light of each compartment, andwherein the monitoring system is configured to monitor when the radiation apron is placed in one of the plurality of compartments, monitor the last time each of the cleaning mechanisms were used, and operate each of the cleaning systems wherein the cleaning mechanism further comprises two scrubbing mechanisms, each scrubbing mechanism having: a first pulley, rotatably attached to the compartment and proximate to the top surface;a second pulley, rotatably attached to the compartment and within the volume of cleaning solution; a cable rotatably attached to the first and second pulley; and at least one brush fixed to cable, the cable selectively moving the brush downwardly to the liquid-impermeable bottom portion and moving the brush vertically alongside the garment to engage and clean the garment on a hanger. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein the hanging mechanism in each of the compartments includes a hanger, the hanger having: a neck with a top and bottom end;a hook fixed to the top end of the neck;a triangular part fixed to the bottom end of the neck for directly supporting one of the radiology aprons;a clamp mechanism for supporting one of the radiology collars; anda stem extending downwardly from the triangular part, the stem having a top portion fixed to the triangular part anda bottom portion attached to the clamp mechanism. 3. The system of claim 2, the clamp mechanism comprising a horizontal component that is fixed to the bottom portion, and at least two clamps rotatably attached to the horizontal component. 4. The system of claim 2, wherein the triangular part is sized to accommodate a radiation apron and the clamp mechanism is sized to accommodate a radiation collar. 5. The system of claim 1, wherein a volume of cleaning solution is located within the liquid-impermeable bottom portion. 6. The system of claim 1, wherein the cleaning system is configured to move the brush downwardly to the liquid-impermeable bottom portion and move the brush vertically alongside the garment to engage and clean the garment on the hanger only when the lock is engaged.
