This was not cherry picked. It was the only one I could find. Feel free to provide better data since you were so sure...
> out of the 345 examinations only 102 were pregnancy scans, making them a minority of all scans made.
I knew you would say that. While this is mathematically that's clearly not what you were implying by saying it is a minority of scans.
I said "it's mostly used for pregnancies". The data supports that, not you.
>clearly not what you were implying by saying it is a minority of scans.
It is exactly what I was saying. And I say this because I work in a hospital with several non-preggo ultrasound labs that are booked overtime. To achieve the same load of pregnancy scans the hospital would need to hire more OB-staff for scanning and the region would need a TFR of 25.
