We cannot say exact dose..as dose depends on tube setttings and operating machine settings.. Though normal scans might have been done for a purpose ..so stop worrying about dose and risk.. Diagnostic imaging always follows a principle benefit outweighs risk.. Follow healthy life style ..

Why were the scans done? Please share reports. Dont worry about the radiation exposure. 2 scans is not worrisome
