This report doesn't tell you have any problem. 2 or 3 CT scans donor cause any harm. But yes there exposure to X ray radiation during each CT. This exposure is 100 times that of a conventional X ray. So get CT scan only when required.

Repeat ct scan can be done but only if advised by your treating doctor.
Other evaluation tests and clinical evaluation is needed.
