My sister had a full body ct scan how much radiation is that compared to a abdomen pelvic ct scan?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Radiation: The exact amount of radiation delivered depends on the particular scanner and the technical parameters of the scan(it is sometimes documented on the scan), but you can easily calculate an estimate with an interactive tool at xrayrisk.com
