Had an MRI scan today and asked the doctor/technician what sort of
radiation dose would I get from a CT scan. His reply was "Have you
been in an airplane? About as much as that." Yet I read on the net
it's a 'megadose' equal to between 150-500 xrays! (I doubt you'll get
that on an airplane.) So who's right please?
