Abstract:
The Council of Forensic Medicine is an institution affiliated with the Ministry of which acts in an official oversight capacity in cases of alleged medical malpractice in forensic medical science. Sonographers may face judicial sanctions as a result of ultrasonography examinations that they do not perform according to current guidelines. Among the reasons examined are features of the ultrasonographic evaluation (number, week of examination, health institution), the traits of the evaluating physicians (institutions, branches, academic titles), congenital anomalies detected after birth, and maternal age. Analysis of the data shows that 79.5% of ultrasonographic examinations leading to claims of medical malpractice were performed in private health institutions. All cases of medical malpractice claims were associated with undiagnosed congenital anomalies, and that the form for informed consent was obtained for only 19.1% of cases that underwent second level ultrasonographic examination. It was concluded that two ultrasonography examinations performed by two nuclear medicine specialists were not in accordance with medical norms. Although organizations such as AIUM, ACR, and ACOG try to set standards for ultrasound examination through practice guidelines, it is difficult to establish optimal standards for ultrasonographic examination.
