Sanna-Mari states "The radiologist I saw last time, mentioned that in
mammogram the radiation exposure is seven times stronger than in e.g. lung
x-ray."

I have no idea why there would be such a discrepancy, unless their equipment
is the type they were using in the US 7 or so years ago.  I feel very
confident that the information I received from my MD, radiologist, breast
imaging friend is accurate.  She has been in the field for about 10 years,
so she is young enough to keep up with the newer ideas and has been in
practice long enough to have experience.
