Queensland X-Ray has produced two new information leaflets discussing the issue of radiation safety.
In April there was considerable media coverage regarding exposure to radiation from medical imaging, in particular CT. This prompted a large number of our patients and referrers to raise questions on this topic.
In response to these questions, we have produced two leaflets; one for patients and the other for referrers.
Copies of the leaflets can be found here and are also available from your local Queensland X-Ray practice.
