So u don’t have to worry changes of getting cancer from ct scan is like chances of getting killed in a car accident, you should look more into autophagy it is very potent at preventing cancer if you’re worry about it
I am 19 years old.i had a head CT scan 2-3 weeks ago just for ear pain. From that moment onward i 've been Feeling random pain inside my head.i am tensed and depressed i cant even focus on my study.when i consulted another doctor he said that CT scan was unnecessary. What Will i do now ? Is tumor possible in future ??
I hope u feel better don t worry what u feel is because of your inner ear one ct scan won t do any harm to u just don't repeat it and if necessary go for MRI
I had a head CT scan when I was 18 in 2020 and I'm having another one tomorrow. You've had a singular head CT scan which because it's low radiation compared to most scans plus the brain is pretty immune to damage from CT gives you an Additional Cancer Risk of 0.024383% is equal to 1 in 4101 chance. Tihs means there is literally an 99.975617% you're completely fine. Plus it couldn't effect you that quick, cancer from radiation usually takes 5-10+ years until it start to develop. You're more likely to get cancer from stressing over it than you would from just the CT. Plus it was worth getting because if you had a brain bleed or extreme issues there would be a greater chance of you dying, you're fine bro. Just be as healthy as you can from this point onwards.
@@Ayylexif that CT scan damages one cell and that cell doesn't die or repair it self fully. Then that's a huge problem. No way am I doing this scan tomorrow
Safest approach is to eat healthily, avoid sugar, avoid stress, exercise, avoid alcohol, smoking, and avoid taking unnecessary risks. Once you become ill, there will be unpleasant consequences. This is the remedy for more or less all illnesses. Avoid the hospital as much as possible. If you imagine illness only affects others, you are probably wrong. The health statistics are dreadful and getting mostly worse.
I have done CT scan for 6 times. Still the oncologist said l have to do another for him to know why the chest sarcoma refused to respond to radiation/chemo.
In india ,most technologist manning the Machine are so dumb they don't even have answers to quantum of sieverts they impress on our person . At 28 , i've undergone two CTs(last one yesterday )in span of about 3.5 years , all for concussion which was totally avoidable. The doctor didn't even briefed me about hazards of radiation, now i'm maniacal regarding this 😢,what if my hairs fall . The dread of brain cancer , the most aggressive glioblastoma &likes ,are giving me nightmares 💔
It will only increases your chance of getting cancer by .0005% and that’s the high end, that’s same as getting killed in a car accident it’s low, look into autophagy if you’re worry as it is potent at preventing cancer
I am 22 year old .I got my CT scan done yesterday whole abdomen with contrast .is there harm of ionising X ray radiation .I got to know about this later on after studying .I am really worried plz anyone tell
Was it just an abdominal or abdominal and pelvis? What was the reason for the scan? It may have been the same or 1msv higher with contrast Other factors are protocol,body mass and year and model of the machine It takes on average 10 years for the DNA damage to show up I wouldn't get anymore at your age For soft tissue analysis MRI technology is far more accurate for high resolution imaging
@bluewave7120 actually I had been suffering from stomach ache for last 4 month .first I under went ultrasound test report was Ok .but pain reamained continuous So I went to another doctor he prescribed for CBCT scan whole abdomen with IV contrast .I got report yestreday .In that too everything was fine .Now I am regreeting why I did so .I studied it causes cancer tell me It was seimens .But I don't know how much msv it was
You shouldn’t worry as much about radiation as you should about the contrast dye. This dye and not the radiation really did a lot of damage to me. It’s super toxic, especially for kidneys. For me besides kidneys it really affected my eyes, eye glands and salivary glands. But every one is different.
You shouldn’t worry too much a ct scan is about 2-10 msv, and 10 is the high end usually it’s around 2-3 msv, 10 msv only increases your chance of getting cancer by .0005%, which is extremely low, that’s like the changes of getting killed in a car accident, you should look more into autophagy as it is very potent at preventing cancers
The cone beam is lower in radiation However, no thyroid protection is allowed because of imaging concerns Make sure the dentist is justified for using it I would avoid the cranial facial cbct and only allow the upper and lower jaw to be in the panaramic cbct scan
I had a brain ct scan in 2018 at 19 years of age. They didnot tell me about the risk of radiation.Every moment I cry to myself , what have I done to myself?....
@@apothos666I’ve had 20 scans. I’m 25. I started at around 15. I just had one done April 2nd because I had to go into surgery. If anyone has a higher chance of getting cancer it’s me lol. Let’s not stress about. I was paranoid before just like you. Most of my scans were done in 2021. On the last one all my organs looked great so I think you’ll be alright
sir i am 22yrs unfortunately i got one CT scan contrast of appendix 1 year ago but reports was normal and appendix was not there but i am worried about might be ct scan cause cancer or impotence in future kindly sir guide me what should i do to detox my body from ct scan side effects
I had one ct scan was scary because am only 26 and doctors one saying I need contrast then other doctors don’t give me I was so confused so ending up with out contrast everything was ok I think just they could not make this mind up like
I wonder if I’m being a hypochondriac but I seriously am so mad at myself for being so stupid. I broke my pinky finger, the base of my proximal phalanx about a year and a half ago, and unfortunately it healed with a malunion, I should’ve just let it go, but I’m a guitar player and I was considering doing osteotomy for it. I went to several different surgeons and got probably maybe 7 to 8 different x-rays over the course of the year, I also got a CT scan recently on my hand as well, I have been reading a lot about how I can damage the DNA, I can’t really explain it, but before my hand felt stupid and now it feels retarded. I feel like my hand is so weak, I just tried playing the guitar and maybe it’s partly muscle memory but I feel like I basically nuked my hand and destroyed it. My hand CT was a high 4.18 mGy and 101 DLP. I also got a MRI to even though they said that’s non ionizing. But I’m sure there is still risk. Which is according to research about a year and a half background radiation. The problem is they don’t tell crap about that as you’re going into appointment. Wish they did. Cause I read it can damage your dna and it’s not like after a year and a half it’s back to good. It stays with you forever. This is the most covered up conspiracy of our generation. Withholding the risks of radiation ☢️ in our lives.
I feel like I should reply to this comment as its clearly affecting your life negatively. Recently ive done tons of research into X-Rays and ionizing radiation to try and calculate the dose which would cause cancer or any other health risks. From what I ve learnt from French and American sources there is no risk and I assume what is happening to your hand is either something to do with the bone or a placebo effect. The US government allows medical personnel to be exposed to larger amounts of radiation than the general public and the total dose they can be exposed to is the equivalent of around 15000 chest scans in a year. It is also worth noting that the lungs are more vulnerable to X rays than bones and skin are. If the scans were solely of your hand and not your organs that risk is extremely minimal. That being said I hope you are now doing well and your hand is healed, the sensation you are experienced is certainly not due to the radiation.
Hopefully AI will crunch these petabytes of data and show a correlation between cause and effect? As a software engineer, it's a 100 mile code of If-then statements, and loops which will continue to require recent data to become 1% correct.
they are always informed about the risks of ionizing radiation. I mean I dont know if they do in Somewhereistan, but in EU and NA countries there is no way you can get a CT-scan without being informed and sign a paper about it unless it is an emergency.
@@someonesomeone529Not true...physicians rarely warn patients of the DNA damage and cancer risk of CT scans They are focused on the results and have very little training in medical school about cumulative msv exposure risk
Yes, after I received my CT I got severe chest pains and was temporarily paralyzed on my left side. Along with other devastating radiation effects. Whatever happened to your daughter after her CT is most likely related to the high doses of ionizing radiation. I got severe radiation poisoning after mine and almost died. We must share our stories and bring awareness to this
I need your help sir! I was really stressed ,Because I took 1 head CT & 1 head and neck ct totally 2 scans in 1 month gap , after my CT scan I am having a pressure headache continuously throughout the day for more than 1 Month , and I came to know that ct scan cause brain cancer .I am 23 years old., Please help me Sir ..
Please don't worry. 2 CTs is nothing and will not cause cancer. I have had many more than that myself. Also any negative effects would not happen so soon, it would take 20+ years. You are going to be fine.
I had around 3-4 ct scans in the gap of 6 years for head Many people did multiple ct scans who I know Some say too many like 10 can increase cancer risk not with few ct scans
Hey I'm 28 and I've had 2 for my head in the span of 9 years both for falls. Looking back I'm thinking both were extremely unnecessary but I'm a gullible dip and believed my doctors when they said i should go through with it. Now I'm terrified of possible future complications because of those scans. I wish i could take it all back. This has been eating away at my soul. How are you dealing with this? I wish i had someone to talk to but they just shrug me off and say I'll be okay. I want answers man. Its my own life they played with.

Well you have kidney stones that's a good reason to have them done couple weeks ago I had a head ct scan for no reason I pushed for it because I had a headache and felt light headed and my anxiety acted up my own fault for letting my anxiety win me over like that
You should get ultrasound for kidney and any other organs it is effective and no radiation, ct scan increases cancer chance but it is very very very low like .0005% though u should avoid it anyway
How about the contrast, Gadolinium-based
Over 10 min video and the answer was “we need more studies “. Lol

Ct scan only increases your cancer chances by .0005% which is extremely low but you should ask for mri, ultrasound or X-ray instead of ct scans
