Dose reduction to a population need not require total reduction nor restriction of the medical use, but study and attention to a few examinations in the pelvic region may satisfy the most skeptical that the use is justified or indicate the need for modification of our present indications for taking x-rays in this area. The potential dangers of ionizing radiation have long been respected and responsible organizations are constantly studying new developments that might add to the dangers and new knowledge that might affect conclusions.
