    AbstractThere is no precise answer to the question of what is the "right amount" of imaging care. The author assesses the problem of what represents appropriate imaging care, the evidence base for using imaging, and the tension between the desires for imaging of individual patients and the health care needs of the broader society.Copyright © 2011 American College of Radiology.
