Radiation from CT scans linked to cancers, deaths - USATODAY.com
www.usatoday.com
CT scans deliver far more radiation than previously believed and may contribute to 29,000 new cancers each year, along with 14,500 deaths.
So, I have to wonder, which was worse for me, the 4 CT scans, the 2 doses of Radioactive Iodine 132, or the 8 weeks of direct radiation, all with in a 9 month window in 2007.... If nothing else, the toilet should glow when I pee.....oh, and then there is the 2 CT scans I've had since, much fun !
