A computed tomographic (CT) scan of the chest and abdomen can provide information about the structure of internal organs that could not be obtained by a routine medical history, physical examination, and a panel of basic laboratory tests. A young couple in good health would like to have an annual CT of the chest and abdomen. They believe it will be able to detect an early stage of an unsuspected organ disease that could be identified and treated early when the treatment would be most effective. They ask for your opinion. What would you tell them? Explain your answer.
