Maybe being an ER doctor itself could bias their decisions more favorable toward CT scans. ER people may see dead people & people with tumors more often than pediatric doctors in their offices. The usual pediatric doctors would see much more patients with ear infections. Also, to ER people, knowing the root cause is probably important for patients' survival, whereas for pediatric doctors, more often than not, lives are not at stake and customer service/easing parents' fear is more important.
