How many time a person can take back bone x ray?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Radiation risk: I'm assuming that this is a spine x-ray. There is a lot of radiation exposure during these exams. Unless it's absolutely necessary, there is no need to repeat this exam especially for young patients. Mri is a better alternative and has no radiation.
