The Indian Radiological and Imaging Association on Wednesday termed&nbsp;AIIMS Director, Dr Randeep Guleria's statements on use of CT scans in evaluation of Covid "misleading".The association said that Guleria's warning that one CT scan is equal to 300-400 x-rays and CT scans cause cancer is "outdated and wrong".
It said the modern CT scanners use ultra low dose CT which has radiation comparable to only 5-10 x-rays.&nbsp;
