Is CT Scanning dangerous?

0

A.The CT Scanner uses X-rays, which do have some potential side effects in large or prolonged doses. The X-ray dosage for the usual CT scan is minimal to the subject. Because of the risk of radiation-induced birth defects, it is not usually advisable to perform CT scanning if the subject is pregnant, particularly in the early stages.
