Summary "In "Avoiding Errors in Radiology", the authors provide 116 real-life examples of errors from both diagnostic and interventional radiology. In each case, the authors discuss in detail the context in which the errors were made, the resulting complications, and strategies for future prevention. With the cases organized by body region, the authors begin with the cranium and then move to cases of the breast, chest and abdomen, spinal column, musculoskeletal and vascular systems. This book offers the readers: - To inform themselves "without an audience" about possible errors that can happen to every radiologist - To analyze the possible causes of errors and wrong decisions in 116 case studies with over 940 illustrations and to transfer the strategies described to avoid errors into their own work - To limit errors and to deal with them more competently and confidently"--Provided by publisher.
