Radiology mistake occur mostly when a health care provider fails to see what these images are meant to show. For example, after a car accident if there was any trauma to your head it is standard procedure for a CT head scan and even sometimes an MRI to be performed. These are performed to catch any bleeds or clots that have occurred as a result of hitting your head during the accident.

The same can be true for cancerous tumors, bowel obstructions, broken limbs, etc.
