Thanks scoliboymom,
We live a couple hours from Charlottesville so it's doable for us to go there. My concern is that it is a private practice, and they may not have a lot experience x-raying children, and that may make a difference in whether we get an accurate x-ray. It would be great to hear from someone who has been there with a child and has prior experience with the EOS as well so they can compare. Our doc here has a brand new digital machine which I am told is lower radiation than older ones (and much lower than traditional film) so it's tempting to keep getting the x-rays done here for consistency while at the same time it's tempting to try to lower her exposure as much as possible.
