    How often do you get an xray? How often does an xray tech perform an xray?

    They are safe with the frequency a normal person is exposed to them. They are not as safe if you are spending your entire work day standing next to the machine.

    I’m not a fan of memes that are predicated on a mischaracterization of medical practices as they can lead to people making uninformed and perilous decisions about their health. If your doctor recommends an xray, you probably need an xray.
