Hello all, it's been a while. At a clinic in Japan and had dental work done lately as well so I was reminded of this question. How much radiation am I being exposed to in Japan with all these X-rays?
Now, it might seem like a simple answer, but I'm asking this with consideration that these xray machines often seem to be very old, and almost never do I see protective vests used. Further more, they seem to take ample numbers of X-rays as well, so I worry a bit about how much I'm really exposing myself too. I've learned to have little trust in the doctors in Japan after several awful experiences and frequent incompetence, so I don't find myself so trustful of the practices with X-ray machines either.
Thanks all
