I think you can find these stories in the U.S. as well. Misdiagnosis is big in medicine.
The difference is that in the US CAT scans and other extensive testing measures aren't rationed so tightly as in socialized systems. In fact, many doctors and hospitals use them as a form of CYA against the dreaded lawsuits that inevitably follow any death or severe downturn in a patient's condition. (you see... trial lawyers DO have a natural purpose!;')

I forgot about lawsuits. That is why this will never work in America thankfully. See and we all hate trial lawyers...I don’t anymore...lol.
