Some radiologists have properly secured additional training and are known as interventional radiologists. In addition to getting and decoding research, an interventional radiologist may also cure a condition or disease with light or minimally-invasive tests taken surgery.
Radiologists translate x-rays, mammograms, CT tests and MRI’s, among other radiological tests. When they misunderstand them, people can experience serious or dangerous repercussions. We see far too many circumstances where reckless radiologists fall short to perfectly translate tests and aneurysms are not seen, sores are skipped, cancer are not recognized, cancer malignancy of the breasts or other cancer are not clinically diagnosed, abdominal tract perforations or inner blood loss is not clinically diagnosed or breaks are skipped and/or other unsafe issues are not determined. Did you know? Mistakes in examining x-rays, MRIs and CT tests are a very common form of wrongful death. When radiologists misinterpret or misunderstand results, the individual can experience some serious repercussions. |
