Should Parents be Worried About the Increased Use of CT Scans on Children?
|
A recently published study indicates a five-fold increase over the last 15 years in the number of CT scans being performed on children in America's ERs. NBC's Chief Science & Health Correspondent Robert Bazell visited the Maimonides ER and interviewed Dr. Alexander Arroyo on whether parents should be concerned about excessive radiation exposure from these scans. The piece aired the evening of April 5th on
NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams.
