Health alert folks...no x-rays if there is a chance of being in the family way.

Just too bad that my mom didn't have access to dental x-rays.

Hey, don't low birth weights make for a more pleasant delivery? That's why I tried to get my wife to smoke when she was pregnant. (rimshot)

If the amount of radiation was the same as that accumulated in 4 to 16 transatlantic flights then it is reasonable to say that international flight attendants would be extremely high-risk for low birth-weight babies.
Somehow, in more than a half century of long distance commercial flight, this correlation would have become obvious.
So, I conclude that this particular study is looking for problems in the wrong area.
