Hundreds of women have been recalled for breast cancer screenings after a hospital claimed a junior doctor failed to follow proper procedures.
The Royal Bournemouth Hospital said 272 patients have been asked back to have reassessments.
The women attended the clinic between January 2011 and July 2012 .
The Royal Bournemouth and Christchurch Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust said it had referred the case to the General Medical Council.
The trust said concerns were raised over the way the women were assessed by the junior doctor, who is no longer working for the trust.
In a statement it said: "This assessment potentially did not meet our usual high standards."
Consultant breast surgeon Tony Skene said: "Although we have found no evidence of any harm, the safety of our patients is our number one priority.
"We do however realise that for those patients that we do recall this may lead to additional anxiety and we apologise for the distress that this may cause."
