New Delhi, May 04
AIIMS chief Dr Randeep Guleria has said that CT scan is being misused by COVID-19 patients. “There is no advantage in getting a CT scan if you have mild symptoms.” He added, “One CT scan is equal to 300-400 chest X-rays. Repeated CT scans in younger age group can increase cancer risk in later life,” he further said.
