When medical professionals do not interpret x-rays and other medical tests correctly, lasting injury can result. These errors can lead to a delayed diagnosis or misdiagnosis of cancer or other serious diseases.
HOW RADIOLOGY MISTAKES HAPPEN
In our experience, radiology errors fall into three categories:
- Radiologists fail to see abnormalities in test results.
- Radiologists wrongly interpret test results as normal.
- Hospitals fail to contact patients to inform them of test results.
