Abdominal CT questions

I've canceled 2 abdominal ct scans with contrast for abdominal discomfort in my right upper quadrant, I've undergone an intestinal and a normal abdominal ultrasound and liver and gallbladder functions in bloodwork. I'm terrified of the 8 MSV to 10 you see when you Google the radiation dosage as im 19, 112 pounds and only 5,8. I dont know if there's any other scan method or if the ct dosage can be lowered if I talk to someone or something?

AI for radiology - A survey

Hello folks! We are a group of students from Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University (Sweden). We are conducting a short survey (it should not take more than 10 minutes of your time) to evaluate an Artificial Intelligence framework for evaluating medical imaging and, in particular, the effect that explainability can have on clinicians' attitudes toward it. We welcome anyone who interacts with medical imaging to take our survey, so please, feel free to do it even if you are still a student or an intern! If you know someone who works in the field, please, pass them the survey. It would help us greatly. https://bit.ly/RTEX_survey Thanks in advance to all of you! submitted by /u/francozzz [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/r2ratp/ai_for_radiology_a_survey/
