  1. THINGS PARENTS SHOULD CONSIDER BEFORE TAKING THEIR CHILD FOR CT SCAN

  2. What is a CT scan? • CT scans use X-rays to create three-dimensional images, providing different views and far greater detail than plain X-ray images. • CT Scan can provide critical information for the care of your child, but obtaining the images uses more radiation than a plain X-ray image.

  3. How much Radiation is used in CT scans? • For instance, we could say that an abdominal CT scan is approximately equal to 2000 days of background radiation and a brain CT scan to 500 days.

  4. How can we minimize the radiation risk to my child? • During a CT scan, the objective is that your child is exposed to the smallest amount of radiation necessary to make a diagnosis.

  5. If I still have concerns about radiation exposure to my child, who should I talk to? • While our knowledge is evolving and the risk varies with age, part of the body examined, and the scan technique, current estimates are that about 1 of every 1000 children who have a CT scan will get a cancer attributable to that CT scan later in life.
