Saw this funny radiology transcription error the other day. Or maybe it was a dictation mistake. Or maybe it was intentional. Regardless, when the radiologist starts providing commentary on the status of your clinical picture, you know it's possibly time to throw in the towel. What was this funny radiology transcription report? It was from a chest xray and it said:
"right infiltrate has slightly, regrettably improved"
I'm think, just maybe, this patient was this radiologist's mother-in-law.
Here's another one of the funniest medical transcription errors I've seen.
