[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DCUM cracks me up. All you people will boast about all your international travels but then be scared about X-rays. A surgeon told me last week that a cross country airplane ride exposes the human body to the same amount of radiation as a CT scan. Pilots and flight attendants have the highest exposure rates to radiation…[/quote] That’s just not true. A cross country flight is the same as a few X-rays, not a CT scan. Also for what it is worth, the cross country flight stretches out over six hours and the radiation is diffused through your whole body. The radiation in a dental X-ray comes all at once and to your head alone. [/quote]
