The impact of CT for 2.5 year olds is mainly related to the number of times, generally speaking, if the number of perfect CT examinations is small, the impact is not significant, but if the number of times is large or excessively frequent, the baby’s probability of developing cancer may increase.
If a 2.5 year old child has a CT done every once in a while, it generally has little effect because the radiation dose is smaller at this time. However, if it is done for a long time or frequently, it will have a great impact on the child. Because CT is a radioactive test, there is a certain amount of radiation. If CT examination is done for a long time, its probability of cancer may increase.
Usually, you should strengthen the care of children to avoid some accidents or diseases, and the examination needs to be done according to the doctor’s instruction. The test should be conducted before weighing the pros and cons.
