Re: Chest x-rays in v. early pregnancyFrom: Michelle (anonymous@obgyn.net)Fri, 29 Jun 2001 06:02:44 -0500 (CDT)
HI Joanna, I just wanted to let you know that I am an x-ray tech and we do perform Chest x-rays on pregnant women. We put a lead shield behind them for one view and then beside them for the other. Even if we forgot to put this shield around the patient (Which we don't), Our x-ray beam is concentrated on the chest area, not anywhere close to your baby. I wouldn't stress over this at all! Hope this helps
