The Last Time Your Child Had A CT Scan – Did You Know What The Radiation Dose Was?

 

CHICAGO, Oct. 16, 2014 /PRNewswire/ — It\’s back to school and more youth than ever are involved in some type of sporting activity. That\’s why approximately three million youth are seen in hospital emergency rooms for sports-related injuries and another five million are seen by their primary care physician or a sports medicine clinic for injuries. Many of those injuries may result in your child having to have a CT scan.

\”Many children\’s hospitals advertise low dose, but what does that mean,\” said James Donaldson, MD, Head of the Medical Imaging Department at Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children\’s Hospital of Chicago. \”There is no imaging equipment specifically for children so we employ three full-time physicists that monitor the radiation dose used for each procedure. We are then able to balance minimum radiation dose with maximum image quality for every child in our care.\”
