Gail Keslevitz had an MRI performed on her knee, but unfortunately, the scan was blurry and couldn't be interpreted by her physician. Ms. Keslevitz had experienced pain for several weeks prior to getting the MRI and receiving her appointment with her physician. Although the doctor didn't have the appropriate scans to determine the correct treatment for Gail, the physician was "sure" that she had torn cartilage in her knee. As a result, Gail believed him and the physician went ahead to repair her cartilage via surgery. Long story short, Gail Keslevitz did not have torn cartilage. Therefore, she went through a long recovery process, spent unnecessary money on hospital bills, and more for no reason.

With my project, Gail could've easily gone back to get a better scan without too much inconvenience. In addition, her physician wouldn't have rushed her into an invasive surgery that she didn't need.
