“First, this is a theoretical association and has not been evidenced by human real case studies. Having said that, CT scans use ionising radiation, unlike other imaging techniques like X-rays, digital ...

Doctors have known that radiation exposure from computed tomography—also called a CT scan—comes with cancer risk. But the risk seems to be higher than previously expected, according to a new study ...

That figure has raised concerns. Especially when you consider that the number of CT scans done in the US has jumped by 30% in just over a decade. In 2023, there were an estimated 93 million CT ...

A series of CT scan images, in combination, can create a 3D view of what’s happening inside the body. These scans also expose people to much more radiation than other imaging tools. X-rays emit ...

Computer tomography scans, or CT scans, are an invaluable tool for diagnosing cancer and other conditions. But in a cruel twist, the medical imaging technique may be more harmful than once thought ...

CT scans, a valuable tool in diagnosing a range of illnesses and complications, could in fact be responsible for around 5% of all cancers diagnosed in the U.S. each year, according to a study recently ...

The study, published in JAMA Internal Medicine, warns that CT scans performed in the US in 2023 alone could eventually lead to over 100,000 extra cancer cases.If the current rate of scanning ...

A new study reveals that abdominal CT scans play a significant role in diagnosing sarcopenia, a potentially reversible muscle-wasting condition that affects millions of older adults. Sarcopenia is ...

Non-enhanced CT scans were deemed helpful in only 4% of haemorrhage cases, primarily in gastrointestinal bleeding, while contributing substantially to the overall radiation exposure. An analysis ...

As PSMA-PET/CT is routinely used for prostate cancer diagnosis due to its improved accuracy over traditional imaging techniques, an increasing number of non-prostate lesions are also being identified.
