Common Types of Radiology Mistakes

Radiology errors can come in all kinds, but here are a few of the most frequent ones:

• Failure to diagnose or test for a brain bleed. Such bleeding is common in victims of auto accidents and other traumatic accidents. Left untreated, it can lead to very serious complications such as stroke or death.

• Failure to diagnose cancer. For treatable breast cancer, prostate cancer, lung cancer, and other tumors, a prompt and accurate diagnosis is critical to the patient’s well-being and chances of survival.

• Failure to identify a small bowel obstruction. When such an obstruction is not reported on an abdominal CT scan, the patient’s condition can worsen rapidly.
