Will heads roll over NEET-UG paper leak? Experts debate
The National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) undergraduate examination has been cancelled following a widespread paper leak, prompting a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe.
Addressing a press conference on Monday, AIIMS Director Dr Randeep Guleria said that all those having mild symptoms of Covid-19 should avoid going for unnecessary CT scans. He further added that one CT scan is equivalent to 300-400 chest X-rays and this increases the risk of having cancer in later life, especially in youth, as one is exposed to harmful radiation.
So, can excessive CT scan lead to cancer? Are CT-scans being done in excess in India? And when to go for a CT scan? These are some of the questions we are raising on this Doctors' Roundtable. So, watch as some of the country leading doctors answer these and more on the show.
