Angioplasty (also known as percutaneous coronary intervention, or PCI), a procedure in which a balloon-tipped catheter is used to open a blocked artery, delivers a dose of radiation about 750 times greater than an X-ray

Hopefully we will develop ways to inexpensively scan the human body without harmful radiation.

In the mean time, if I need a procedure, I think I want the docs to see what they're doing.
