The repeated use of CT imaging raises a child's radiation exposure, overall radiation accrual and future cancer risks. However, our review suggests that these risks can be considerably reduced by physicians, radiologists and academic bodies, through proper justification, optimisation and dose limitation.
Computed tomography poses a potential risk of radiation-induced cancer in children. The physician must weigh up the overall risks and benefits of CT before referring a child for imaging.
重复使用CT成像会增加儿童的辐射暴露、总体辐射累积量以及未来患癌风险。然而,我们的综述表明,医生、放射科医生和学术机构可以通过合理论证、优化和剂量限制,显著降低这些风险。
计算机断层扫描对儿童存在辐射诱发癌症的潜在风险。医生在将儿童转诊进行成像检查之前,必须权衡CT检查的总体风险和益处。
