What the prospective father must know: Can pregnant women touch the X-ray?

Can pregnant women touch the x-ray? After taking the x-ray film, I found early pregnancy. Can I still have a baby?

Question 1: What is the X-ray?

It is an electromagnetic wave with a certain wavelength and frequency. The X-ray has a very short wavelength and a very high energy. Its wavelength is between ultraviolet and gamma rays, and the X-ray wavelength for image diagnosis is 0.008 to 0.031 nm. When the X-ray penetrates the human body, it is absorbed by the calcium-containing component bone, water (blood, etc.), soft tissue (muscle), and the like. X-rays are used to absorb different images of different substances.

Question 2: What is the dose of X-ray examination and what is the risk to pregnant women?

The following are the usual doses of X-ray examination:

Chest through 0.1-0.2 Roentgen (Rade) / times;

Gastrointestinal perspective 3-3.5 roentgen (rad) / times;

Pelvic photos 1-3 Roentgen (Rade) / times;

Lung perspective 0.05-0.1 roentgen (rad) / times;

Dental radiography 5 roentgen (rad) / times;

Gastrointestinal system 30 roentgen (rad) / times;

Tumor treatment (local irradiation) 3000-7000 roentgen (rad) / times;

Head 0.04 roentgen (rad) / times;

Abdomen 0.245 roentgen (rad) / times;

Intravenous pyelography 1.398 roentgen (rad) / times.

Usually, when a pregnant woman receives an X-ray, the x-ray dose received by the fetus is 0.07 Roentgen. It is generally considered that the dose of X-rays absorbed by the fetus in the first four months of pregnancy is above 10 Roentgen (equivalent to 10 chests). Transdermal dose), it is easy to cause deformity.

If the pregnant woman does need to have an X-ray after a full evaluation, it is recommended to wear a lead shielding suit for pregnant women to reduce radiation, especially to the abdomen.

Question 3: What should I do if I take the X-ray during pregnancy? Need an abortion?

The International Commission on Radiological Protection's view is that in the case of a fetal absorbed dose of less than 100 mGy (1 Gy = 100 roentgen), which is 10 roentgens, the decision to terminate the pregnancy based on the risk of radiation is lack of legitimacy. The vast majority of X-ray examinations of intrauterine doses and their health risks are safe and there are few valid reasons to terminate the pregnancy.

In the range of 100-500 mGy (usually the therapeutic dose, very rare) during the 8th to 15th week of pregnancy, the risk of deformity, developmental delay, central nervous system damage and IQ loss should be carefully considered.

Power Wheelchair

The fundamental difference from traditional electric scooters, battery scooters, bicycles and other transportation tools is that electric wheelchairs have intelligent operating controllers. According to the different operation methods, there are rocker-type controllers, and controllers controlled by various switches such as the head or blowing system. The latter is mainly suitable for severely disabled people with upper and lower limbs. Nowadays, electric wheelchairs have become an indispensable means of transportation for the elderly and the disabled. It is suitable for a wide range of objects. As long as the user has a clear consciousness and normal cognitive abilities, the use of electric wheelchairs is a good choice, but it requires a certain amount of space for activities.
