Subject: X-ray of pregnant patients
Are there any pamplets available with information on radiation exposure
to a fetus or would anyone be willing to share with me the information
that you give to a pregnant patient when the physician ordering the
x-ray exam says "Yes, I know that she is pregnant but need this exam
<lumbar spine?> anyway"? We are in the age of informed consent and I
would like to be able to hand the patient some information and have the
patient sign that she read it and consents to the exam.
Thank you
