Excess Greenhouse Gas Emissions Associated With Inappropriate Medical Imaging in the US Medicare Part B Population From 2017 to 2021
Medical imaging is a source of greenhouse gas emissions, and inappropriate use results in low-value, excess imaging. The environmental impact of low-value imaging has not been quantified.
