No worries: Three neck x-rays causes no change to a person's lifetime cancer risk. Generally, if the benefit of finding a disease or cure outweighs the tiny risks from the imaging, it's ok to do. To reduce one's cancer risk, keep a healthy weight and exercise (at least 30 minutes, 5 days a week). Eat lots vegetables and limit one's intake of red meat, or burned or charbroiled meat.
