Risks and Benefits of MRI and CT Examination in Pregnant Women
摘要
Radiological examinations are typically performed when the benefits of acquiring critical medical information outweigh the drawbacks of the procedure itself [1]. This principle also guides obstetricians and gynecologists when deciding on radiological examinations for pregnant women, which are carried out in collaboration with radiologists and radiological technologists. The primary benefit is the crucial data that can shape effective medical treatment strategies. The main drawback, however, is the potential biological effects caused by exposure to radiation, electromagnetic fields, and electromagnetic waves.
