@sueinmn Glad you mentioned about the low dosage because I was sent to an off site facility for one rather than the Baylor hospital C Scan....
I realized that that is not something I want to do again. I had my last one at the hospital. I did ask the tech about the machine but really didn't think to ask about low dosage or the brand model.
I googled: what is the best c scan machine with low dosages
AI came up with a couple and posted: " Siemens SOMATOM Known for its low-dose lung cancer screening capabilities. Offers advanced dose reduction technologies."
Do you know if that is what your hospital has?
It appears the other two had options for the amount of dosage.
Now for my finding out what each hospital in the area uses.

@blm1007blm1007 I don't know, my pulmonologist ordered a low dose scan, they were on the list of availablelocations. The stand-alone imaging center was not.
