In Japan, health researchers recently announced that at least three percent of all cancers are directly due to excessive use of x-rays and other invasive electromagnetic diagnostic tests such as CAT and PET scans. Yes, that is three out 100 patients with cancer got that way from their own doctors.

The only good thing you can say is that at least the facts finally came out.

I was not surprised by the report. I was once quite ill with mycoplasmic pneumonia in this country, and the various doctors gave me at least a dozen x-rays -- in the first case, identical x-rays taken by two different facilities within 24 hours -- before I was well enough to get away from them. I was too ill to protest for a while there.

Every year teachers are supposed to take an x-ray as a condition of employment. Every year I do not, and if pushed to the wall will do battle. I can not be sure about the utility of mammograms, but I believe that non-invasive methods, such as Omura's BDORT, are likely to be proven superior in the long run.

I avoid radiology unless it is absoloutly necessary. Some folks think that Breast CA is in-part caused by the "checkup" mammograms.

    I know this has probably been discussed here before but I need to
    know. Does taking silver affect you in any way while having an
    x-ray? I have a mammogram coming up and was just concerned about
    it. Have been taking cs for over a year now.
