Error and Uncertainty in Diagnostic Radiology exposes the process of diagnostic radiology and how it can sometimes go tragically wrong. The occurrence of radiological error directly correlates with the underlying high level of uncertainty known to be present in the diagnostic process. As an expert in the field, Michael Bruno helps readers gain insight into the various types of radiologist error as well as practical strategies for error prevention.
