Radiation exposure and cancer
2 years back I have suffered with the chest pain and visited cardiologist multiple times. He ran all the tests and reports are fine. Finally he suggested CT coronary Angiogram. I went for the test and continuously done with 2 consecutive CT scans. because in the 1 st scan the report was not clear. So the operator immediately took the 2 nd scan. So within 30 minutes I exposed to 2 CT Angiograms.
Before this I have undergone with 1 head CT Scan.
So my total ct scan exposure is 3.
Now my question is what is my cancer risk after 3 ct scan exposure within span of 1 year. Today I went for CBC test and I have high lymphocytes count of 50.7 and I have attached the CBC report. I am very much worried. Is this due to cancer?
What are the further tests I need to take?

Hello
It doesnt look like any cancer. It takes years for cancer to develop after radiation exposure. So you should relax.
