CT Scans and Radiation: On-going Consequences for One Patient
In my past posts, I've described the exposure of one of my patients to the radiation from three CT Scans in the span of one-year and hypothesized on the possible physical consequences from such high dosage of radiation in such a small time interval. Well, it has surfaced that this patient has experienced one unanticipated consequence, which otherwise is uncommon in men in their early thirties who engage in limited physical activity. This patient requires a hip replacement.
