A new study suggests the cumulative effects of ionizing radiation from CT scans may raise a person's lifetime risk of ...

A new study is projecting how radiation from computed tomography imaging​, or CT scans, could lead to future cancers.

CT scans employ ionizing radiation to create detailed cross-sectional images of internal body structures. While medical professionals have always recognized that this radiation carries risks ...

Scientists long ago established that ionizing radiation emitted by computed tomography, or CT, scans increases cancer risk.

NPR's Ayesha Rascoe asks Dr. Rebecca Smith-Bindman about her research indicating CT scans, which emit radiation, will cause some 100,000 cases of cancer annually.

In fact, if current imaging practices persist, CT scans might eventually account for 5% of new cancer diagnoses annually, researchers said. “Our estimates put CT on par with other significant ...
