Patient's question:
During pregnancy, it is always particularly uncomfortable, and morning sickness is also very severe. Is it harmful to the body for a pregnant woman to do a CT scan for others?Doctor's answer:
Hello, family members are advised to avoid radiation exposure as much as possible during the examination. Your situation suggests that you should seek medical attention promptly to check if it has caused any impact on your child. In the early stages of pregnancy, if the medication dosage is small, the impact on the fetus will not be too significant. You can undergo prenatal and postnatal examinations, including the Down syndrome screening between weeks 14-20 of pregnancy and the ultrasound anomaly scan between weeks 22-26.
