Cancer misdiagnosis occurs when a healthcare provider incorrectly identifies cancer as another condition or fails to diagnose cancer altogether. This critical error can lead to delayed treatment, allowing the cancer to progress and potentially reducing the patient's chances of survival.
A late cancer diagnosis happens when there is a significant delay in identifying cancer, often due to overlooked symptoms or misinterpreted test results. This delay can result in the cancer advancing to later stages, requiring more aggressive treatments and potentially reducing the effectiveness of available therapies.
A missed cancer diagnosis is a severe error where healthcare providers fail to identify cancer despite the presence of symptoms or risk factors. This oversight can lead to the disease progressing unchecked, causing extensive damage and significantly impacting the patient's prognosis and quality of life.
