Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Council Directive 2013/59/EURATOM: Chiropractic Association of Ireland

Mr. Tony Accardi:

X-rays are normally taken on the first visit of a new patient. The 130 chiropractors in the country may have up to 50,000 new patient visits a year between them. With only 3,000 being x-rayed, that is quite a small percentage.
