I am an x-ray technologist and have just been diagnosed with papillary carcinoma. Are there any connections?

I don't think your line of work is what caused your cancer. I had papillary carcinoma and I'm a legal assistant. My papillary carcinoma was thyroid cancer. It made it so they had to take my thyroid glad out. I'm fine now and cancer free.
Geood luck to you.

Papillary carcinoma is fairly common; there may be a connection but there probably is not if you have been careful on your job.
The good news is that Papillary Carcinoma is highly treatable with good results for most patients:
