Question about CT scans
by Crewchief67t, Jul 28, 2009 09:12PM
I have had 2 ct scans for different things in the past two months. Coronary calcium screening and a ct of pelvis and abdomen. I am 32 year old male. My doc wants me to have a CT angiogram now. Is this too much radiation exposure in too short of a period? Read my other posts if you need more info. It is a very long post so i really didnt want to retype it.
Thanks.
Thanks.

No I don't believe this is too much radiation, particulary if you consider the benefits you gain from these test. I had a the scans and the angio all within a week and no signs of over radiation.
