I had 4 ct of the brain n 2012 will i now get a brain tumor or how long would it take if i did get one? how much radiation did i get from 4 ct of brai

Why 4 CTs: Why did you have 4 CT studies of your brain? Did your doctor need to follow up on a question? Hard to say how much radiation you got- each machine is different; the number of actual exposures for each study. Ask the doctor who ordered the tests your excellent questions. Hope everything is normal. Is there a family history of malignancy?
