all 5 articles are about the same site cedar sinai. none of the "reporters" went out to find a second site that was running extra high ct scans. sort of like wsj quoting fox news quoting barrons quoting market watch quoting smart money. all one company(murdoch owned), and a bunch of cheap, incompentent reporters getting inches, and demogoging. i see we are generating a large usless bill for safety from the house for a one time occurnnce. maybe this even happens once a year/week. zero defects cost really big bucks.

CT scanners and tooth xrays are pretty safe. so are cars, airplanes and guns(??). but operators can screw up. sounds like the cedar sinai manchine was misset. ban all ct scanners??

i recently had a stroke. i have had about half a dozen ct scans. none of hair has fallen out.
