The lost CT scan films


Guest

399 views

My husband, who has been diagnosed with esophageal cancer, had CT scans done and we took those films with us to Iowa City to show that doctor, now, we're trying to chase those films down, as the films weren't given with us when we left Iowa City. Ah , the lost is found....Hubby went to hospital where scans were done to pick up the PET scan results yesterday and just an hour ago realized the 'lost' films were in with scan results he'd picked up yesterday. Evidently the films were mailed back to the hospital in town here and that info wasn't logged at Iowa City. Does the right hand know what the left is doing, is it aware there is a left hand?

All's well, that ends well, they say. Hope this isn't a forwarning of the future care in Iowa City. silly.gif

Janice-

I guess if you have to go to a hospital in Iowa, my understanding is Iowa City is where you want to be. I've know quite a few people who were sent there, and the care was excellent.

Take Care,

You can be thankful the films were found.

This should not happen with computer technology,but it does.

I saw many things like this happen when working in a hospital.

It seems to happen more in a bigger institution.
