Bald circle around your head, dizziness, memory loss? Just the hospital ODing you on radiation.



Hundreds of people, multiple hospitals.

"To do that, GE offers a feature on its CT scanner that can automatically adjust the dose according to a patient?s size and body part. It is, a GE manual says, ?a technical innovation that significantly reduces radiation dose.?

At Cedars-Sinai and Glendale Adventist, technicians used the automatic feature ? rather than a fixed, predetermined radiation level ? for their brain perfusion scans.

But a surprise awaited them: when used with certain machine settings that govern image clarity, the automatic feature did not reduce the dose ? it raised it. "

I had been wondering what happened to you buddy.... Now it all makes sense, your brain was over-radiated.





Sorry about that man.

What's your excuse when you're away from the hospital?

think about that

Reminds me of this...

The Therac-25 was a radiation therapy machine produced by Atomic Energy of Canada Limited (AECL) after the Therac-6 and Therac-20 units (the earlier units had been produced in partnership with CGR of France). It was involved with at least six accidents between 1985 and 1987, in which patients were given massive overdoses of radiation, approximately 100 times the intended dose. Three of the six patients died as a direct consequence.

This is something you think often of?

Well I suppose it's a better excuse than falling asleep at a party.
