女性在照X光照片時,一定要請醫生使用奥兹博士提到的小工具,這個工具可以預防女性增长最迅速的女性甲状腺癌……
上周三,奥兹医生在一个妇女节目中演讲现今增长最快的女性癌病;『甲状腺癌』。这是一个非常有趣的节目,奥兹医生说这个在女性癌病中增长最快速的甲状腺癌,可能跟病人在照牙科的X光片和乳房X光攝影检查(mammograms)有关。
奥兹医生指出,当牙医帮您的牙齿照X片时,那个X机设备配有一个活动兜罩,可以举起和包裹在你的脖子上,保护甲状腺,但是许多牙医都嫌麻煩,只是放在抽屉里,懒得去使用它,除非病人问才会用。此外,还有一种叫做『甲状腺护罩』为病人在做乳房X光检查时用,但很多时都没有使用。
“嗯,如果一般民眾没有看过奥兹医生这个节目,怎么懂得去问?
虽然照X光检查牙齿和乳房,只需要几秒到几分钟,但由于『甲状腺』位于颈部下前方,呈盾牌状或盔甲状,X光的辐射很容易影响到『甲状腺』。
以后记得;每当要照X光检查牙齿和乳房,记得提出要用『甲状腺护罩』围在脖子上。
趕快要把这信息传递给我们的女儿,侄女,母亲和我们所有的女性朋友。丈夫要告诉你的妻子,男生要告訴你的女朋友!

On Wednesday, Dr. Oz had a show on the fastest growing cancer in women, thyroid cancer. It was a very interesting program and he mentioned that the increase could possibly be related to the use of dental x-rays and mammograms. He demonstrated that on the apron the dentist puts on you for your dental x-rays there is a little flap that can be lifted up and wrapped around your neck. Many dentists don’t bother to use it. Also, there is something called a “thyroid guard” for use during mammograms. By coincidence, I had my yearly mammogram yesterday. I felt a little silly, but I asked about the guard and sure enough, the technician had one in a drawer. I asked why it wasn’t routinely used. Answer: “I don’t know. You have to ask for it.” Well, if I hadn’t seen the show, how would I have known to ask? |
