Got a CAT scan and am nervous of radiation





I had a scare over the weekend that had the doctors at the ER concerned that I was either having a problem with my heart or possibly a blood clot in my lung. I got a chest x-ray and a CAT scan as two of the tests (the other tests were EKG, blood and urine testing). I know that CAT scans contain high doses of radiation. Is there anything I can do to mitigate my exposure after the fact? Dietary changes, etc.? Supplements?
