Everything You Know Is Wrong: You need to wear a lead apron when they take X-rays, right? More doctors say no, that those aprons don't provide any necessary protection and may actually hurt you by concentrating larger amounts of radiation in the uncovered areas. Meanwhile, they now think that you don't need protection of your nuts or ovaries. It's all been Medical Safety Theater, according to those doctors. But don't expect change overnight, because a lot of doctors are either not convinced or not ready to make a change that their patients will question. (Kaiser Health News via OregonLive.com)
