description Radiation from computed tomography (CT) has risk of excessive cancer on children. Slovis recommends ordering physicians to be involved, getting manufacturers to make the right technical parameters easy to use and hard to overdose the child, and having the radiologist as an educator to both the clinician and technologist to succeed in lowering the radiation dose in CT and decrease the risks of carcinogenesis.
