An Example . . .
Diagnosis of VTE during
pregnancy and puerperium
The estimated fetal radiation exposure from the combination of a
CXR, V/Q scanning, and pulmonary arteriography is less than 500
mrad (Toglia, M et all. N Engl J Med 1996).
100 to 200 times less than the dose thought to produce a significant risk
of fetal anomalies. Small increase in the risk of childhood leukemia from
1 in 2800 to 1 in 2000 (Mole, RH. Br J Cancer 1990). Compare with the
15 percent risk of maternal mortality if pulmonary embolism is not
diagnosed and treated.
There has been no reported harmful effects from MR imaging of the
pregnant woman or fetus (Duncan, KR. Br J Hosp Med 1996;
55:178). Safety studies - at or below 1.5 Tesla magnetic field
strengths. There may be an increased risk of tissue heating at higher
field strengths.
National Radiological Protection Board: MRI to be avoided in the first
trimester it should be considered in the first trimester when the
benefit exceeds the theoretic risk (pregnant women with suspected
appendicitis in whom the appendix cannot be visualized by US)
Diagnosis of VTE during
pregnancy and puerperium
Fetal radiation exposure from CXR, V/Q scanning,
and pulmonary arteriography:
100 to 200 times < significant risk. 1
Small increase in the risk of childhood leukemia
No reported harmful effects from MR imaging of
the pregnant woman or fetus. 3
Avoid MRI in the first trimester 4
