What tests can't be done during pregnancy?

X-rays and CT scans both emit radiation and are not done during early pregnancy. Under normal circumstances, pregnant women should avoid X-rays, CT scans and other radioactive imaging examinations as much as possible. Chest X-rays should never be done (the radiation dose of a chest X-ray is 0.60-4.85msv, much greater than a chest X-ray), especially during the first three months of pregnancy. After 28 weeks of pregnancy, you should not be exposed to radiation examinations unless there is a life-threatening situation for the pregnant woman or fetus. "If there is a life-threatening situation and an X-ray is necessary, the pregnant mother can take an extra layer of protection, which is to wear a lead suit around the abdomen. In addition, the exposure time should be as short as possible." Pan Jianying pointed out that the impact of X-rays on the fetus is mainly related to the exposure dose and the exposure site. Exposure to parts far away from the fetus, such as the chest, hands and feet, has less impact than exposure to parts close to the fetus, such as the abdomen and pelvis. Wearing lead suits on key parts of the body can prevent radiation from penetrating and reduce radiation damage to a certain extent.

Does CT scan have any effect on the body?

The rays emitted by CT will directly kill normal white blood cells and may reduce the number of white blood cells, but the killing effect of CT is not very large, and a CT scan will not cause any symptoms to the body.

Pregnant or breastfeeding women and diabetic patients should tell their doctor in advance. After the examination, you should drink plenty of water to speed up the excretion of the medicine.
