Abstract
Interventional radiology is an invasive specialty with the potential for errors as with other invasive specialties. A critical analysis of the different types of errors may help radiologist undertake the corrective measures. Standardize interventional procedures with protocols applicable to clinical practice are necessary to avoid the malpractice and, therefore, the related medical-legal issues. In this article, we present an overview of principal differences between errors and malpractice with particular regard to the issues in interventional radiology. Specific topics discussed in this article are the approaches to preventing errors and, thus, to avoiding the malpractice in interventional radiology.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
