I never claimed to be omniscient, all I did was read some articles about the incident, and they did not support the claims of “faulty HIT”. The articles I read indicated that it was due to user error. If you have articles that say it was due to a poor interface, I’d like to see them.

Ever try that ol’ Nikon film camera at f2.0 & 1/2 sec on a bright sunny day?

Yes. I have never blamed the camera when that happens.

“Corpuscle, the Cedars-Sinai story doesn’t really help your cause. In order to overdoes those patients “the hospital had to bypass the protocol that came installed on the machine.” It was user error.”

In fact, Programmer, medical errors are usually caused by systemic factors. In this case, the errors likely involve a carelessly designed CT scanner user interface, lack of appropriate periodic testing of the machine as is generally the rule for x-ray equipment that requires periodic calibration and alignment using test objects, poor training of techs, and careless techs and radiologists not noticing that images were overexposed, needing compensation via the grayscale and other image manipulation controls.

I just wonder if subtle features were missed due to the CT overexposures.
