For every 10,000 children who received one head CT examination, about one radiation-induced brain cancer is expected during the 5–15 years following the CT examination, researchers warn.

The average brain dose per head or neck CT in 2012-2014, 38 mGy, was associated with excess brain cancer risk compared with a brain dose of 0 mGy (RR 1.5, 95% CI 1.2-2.0).

Patients who underwent at least one head/neck CT scan exhibited significantly higher risk for childhood brain tumors as those who did not undergo head/neck CT scans (OR = 2.84; 95% CI, 1.12-7.19).
