Chest x-ray at 22w pregnant

I have a medical exam coming up and they require me to do a chest x-ray. I will be 22w pregnant at the time of exam and the clinic assured me that protection will be given. Is it safe enough for the baby? Have any moms done an x-ray while they're pregnant? I'm so worried that it could affect my first baby. Tia #firstbaby #pleasehelp #1stimemom

I work in a radiology centre. Unless for emergency reasons only advised to do x-ray provided approved by your gynae.. If not just the radiology centre has no rights or against their protocol to do an x-ray/CT/ and even MRI for someone who is pregnant.
