Mistake Leads to Tumor Removal

daily-dose-of-uplift-2

Surgeons at University of Maryland Medical Center recently found a woman’s tumor thanks to a mistake the MRI technician made.

They already knew she had a brain tumor, but the tech positioned the camera a little lower than necessary, and they spotted a second tumor on her neck.  If they hadn’t caught it, it would have kept growing and left her paralyzed.

It happened last year, and they removed both tumors.   They had to use a new technique and go in through her EYE SOCKET to get the second one.  But now a year later, there’s no sign of cancer in her body.
