   Adding insult to injury that’s an out-of-network radiology practice….not covered treatment by his HMO.

   On the bright side, he doesn’t have to worry about accidental overexposure anymore…

    Unfortunately, something like this actually happened. Therac-25 was a software-controlled radiation-therapy machine used to treat
    people with cancer. Between 1985 and 1987, Therac-25 machines at four medical centers
    gave massive overdoses of radiation to six patients. In some cases, the operator repeated
    an overdose because the machine’s display indicated that it had given no dose.

    I think the book you’re referencing is “Set Phasers On Stun”.
