It depends on your age, gender, and the part of your body that's being scanned. Overall, your odds are very low -- the chance of getting a fatalcancerfrom any one CT scan is about 1 in 2,000. Some organs are more sensitive to radiation than others. It tends to do more damage to...
For example, patients with precancerous symptoms or early symptoms that might prompt their physician to perform a CT scan, which may lead to the possibility of reverse causation. Until now, there is still uncertainty on whether ionizing radiation from CT scans can increase the risks of cancer....
WASHINGTON (CBS/AP) - A special type of CT scan can detect lung cancer early enough to save some lives, the National Cancer Institute announced Thursday - the first evidence that a screening test may help fight the nation's top cancer killer. ...
CT scans in cancer fears New evidence of a "substantial cancer risk" from CT scans is reported in the Lancet Oncology in October. At Columbia University researchers have calculated that the radiation produced from an annual scan, risks a one in fifty chance of death. "The risks of full ...
CT Scans and Lung Cancer Small or slow-growing nodules (小结节) discovered on a lung scan are unlikely to develop into tumors over the next two years, researchers reported on Wednesday. The findings reported in the New England Journal of Medicine, could help doctors decide when to do more ...
