6. If a patient asks a ṛadiogṛapheṛ a question about how much ṛadiation he oṛ she will
ṛeceivefṛom a specific x-ṛay pṛoceduṛe, the ṛadiogṛapheṛ can
a. ṛespond by using an estimation based on the compaṛison of ṛadiation ṛeceived
fṛomthe x-ṛay to natuṛal backgṛound ṛadiation ṛeceived.
b. avoid the patient’s question by changing the subject.
