[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“CT scans use ionizing radiation, which can potentially increase the risk of cancer, especially with multiple or high-dose scans. Contrast dye used in some CT scans can also have side effects, including kidney issues or allergic reactions. While the radiation dose from a typical CT scan is considered low, the cumulative effect over time and in certain populations, like children, is a concern.” I’d only do a CT scan for my child if absolutely life or limb saving [/quote] How could you possibly know if it was one of these, with your layperson "expertise"? You can tell by your gut if it's allergies or rhabdomyosarcoma?[/quote]
