CT Scan v MRI Lung issues

Posted , 2 users are following.

Has anyone had sporadic bleeding with it being from the lungs? I'm pushing for an MRI rather than CT as the radiation from CT is quite heavy but no luck from specialist no this.

I don't have any other lung symptoms though apart from a on again off again cough.

I am suffering from Reflux.

    For lung disease CT is the best though it does have the radiation. But, for detection of the potential lung abnormal it is worth of lung CT scan
