Abstract
CT has substantially advanced medical care through improved diagnosis, but its use comes with potential harms, including cancer risk from radiation; detection of incidental findings that may lead to additional and often unnecessary diagnostic testing and treatment; and accidental radiation overdose. Moreover, CT is too often performed when its use is unlikely to enhance patient health or change clinical care.
