I am a CT tech. This concept is whats called cover-your-ass medicine. You can thank the lawyers for this. There is no such thing as a "low dose" scanner.
The lesson: think before you come to the ER for that tummy ache.

@johnnybravo234 what about MRI?

MRI does not use radiation.

MRI is not a substitue for certain pathology. In my opinion, CT is much more versatile. It is faster and patients tend to prefer it for this reason. Scans typically take only a couple minutes so it is much more practical for trauma patients. Don't get me wrong, CT is an exremely useful tool. It is just over utilized.
