Ultrasound, CT and nuclear scans, MRI, which of these medical tests involve radiation? If you are undergoing one of these tests, you would know the answer…or would you not? It turns out that 46% of patients do not. Medical tests are ordered for good reasons—but being exposed to radiation may increase your risk of getting cancer in the future. It is not uncommon for patients to have unanswered questions even as they are waiting for tests to be conducted. More awareness is needed to find out what we are putting our bodies through, so that we can make a conscious and informed decision. Choose to be risk-aware without being risk-adverse.
