    Why give medical professionals a pass ! You did not read AMA or JAMA article did you??? I am outraged that anyone would give doctors passes on using radiation on benign surgery like tonsil adenoids that I had in late 1960’s ! 69 yr and just finding out. My health has been on downhill slide for over 10 yrs! The AMA feared legal repercussions! Are you kidding they wrote the reason ! It was cheap quick surgery and another crime is no “ standardized dose “ given !! This is blatant criminal of med pros !
