“Just like they can use MRI often instead of CT scan but opt for CT because quicker and cheaper- radiation be damned. I rarely see docs takes radiation into consideration.”

To my great surprise, a physiatrist (a minimally-invasive spine & rehabilitative medicine sub-specialist) I saw for the first time a few weeks ago actually included that in the list of why he preferred MRIs vs more radiation-emitting imaging methods.
