No that is not what the doctor is saying:Ooookay then, as I fast approach Friday, the date upon which I am
scheduled for the 64 slice
test, and having come to a conclusion that there is essentially about
the same exposure level
between the "dual-core" and 64-slice CT, what pray tell would you,
yourself do in my case, if
you need to have this done? I am appreciative of those who take the
time to offer insights here,
but the degree of uncertainty generated by the varied responses leads
one to find it difficult
to draw conclusion. Bottom line...am I or am I NOT at risk for higher
radiation dosage from
a "dual-core" procedure than that of the 64-slice machine? Frankly,
there is enough vacilation
on the part of the so-called experts whom I've spoken to at hospitals
to leave me uncertain
about their own knowledge, let alone the mixed information and
implications of doubt presented
on this forum.
With all due respect,
Mike
PS: helpfulness to me, is largely CLARITY.
