Cancer expert tells court follow-up on Ruth Morrissey after her first bout of cervical cancer was 'unthorough'

The “window of opportunity” to save the life of Ruth Morrissey who is now terminally ill with cervical cancer opened in early 2016 and closed in February 2017, an expert has told the High Court.

Follow-up on Ruth Morrissey, who had surgery to remove her first bout of cervical cancer in 2014, was “unthorough” and she should have had MRI scans which are the “gold standard” every six months for three years and annually after that, Professor Bleddyn Jones said.
