ABSTRACT

The increment of technology has extended to all areas at medical practice, while a change in relation to diagnostic methods has occurred in image studies. The VOMIT syndrome is the acronym for victim of modern imaging technology and is the term utilized to collectively describe the adverse prognosis in diagnostic, treating politraumatized patients due to a tautly application or interpretation at image studies. Probably in short term, brief teaching strategies and practice guides will substitute the lack at precision in interpreting image studies correctly. Considering the long term the physicians training, associated with a training, associated with a training bases on the principles of correction of the inducers at perception errors probably represents the best strategy to diminish the prevalence of VOMIT syndrome cases.
