a nice link about radiation from TC scanners makes IMGG even more valuable !!{since Dominion is low dose}.http://www.reuters.com/articl

The Dominion also has other advantages beyond the real-time 3D capability. The unit produces about one half the radiation of standard fluoroscopy (the x-ray technology used by the Dominion), it is portable, fits though a standard door and plugs into a standard wall outlet. In addition to 3D the Dominion can also perform CT functions and standard fluoroscopy x-rays. The Dominion with the CT option is about one third the cost of a stand alone CT system which requires a large shielded room and is limited to the radiology department. The Dominion allows the imaging technology to go to the patient instead of the patient joining a long line into the radiology department. Also, these abilities combined with the small footprint of the Dominion provides capabilities to operating and emergency rooms that are not possible today.
