dc.description.abstract | After explaining the treatment plan to a new patient I was requested
by her to provide clarity, regarding the various types
and numbers of the radiographs that I had suggested. She
said that she was very concerned about exposure to X-rays
and could I not limit the number of radiographs I needed to
make a diagnosis and carry out her treatment?
While it is important to discuss the diagnostic requirements
with my patients, I feel I may be ethically comprised by
making a less than optimal diagnosis of oral health conditions,
by limiting the diagnostic investigations I perform. | en_US |
