so... die from what ever they are trying to find with the CT scan (its not like they do them for ***** and giggles, if you get one it cause you need it) or run a chance of getting cancer from it... According to the American Cancer Society's recent 2009 report, about 1,479,350 new cancer cases are expected to be diagnosed in 2009. for teh "tens of thousands" they claim I'll split it and say 50,000... That means that .0337% of cancers cases each year are from CT scans...
Still very good info and I hope they use it to make CT's safer! I wish there was no cancer (it runs strong in my family) but that wont keep me from getting a CT scan if I need it.
