Radiation?? |
Does an ultrasound of your thyroid give off radiation? What about having an 'uptake' scan of your thyroid? Would that be exposure to radiation?

An ultrasound machine creates images that allow various organs in the body to be examined. The machine sends out high-frequency sound waves, which reflect off body structures.

Ultrasound have nothing to do with radiation. Doctors aren't going to do any tests that are unnecessary. Breast Cancer survivor |
