Why It Matters

Their testimony establishes the causation link between missed findings and delayed cancer diagnosis or untreated fractures.

Radiology Expert Witness FAQs

Common questions about Reliable Clinical Experts radiology expert witness services.

How do radiology experts evaluate missed diagnoses?

Reliable Clinical Experts radiologists review original images to determine whether abnormalities were visible, compare with prior studies, assess whether findings met reporting criteria, and evaluate whether interpretation was reasonable given clinical information. They distinguish between findings that should have been seen — constituting malpractice — and those that were truly imperceptible or obscured.

What are radiologists' communication obligations?

Reliable Clinical Experts radiology experts testify that radiologists must communicate critical findings directly to treating physicians in a timely manner — not just include them in written reports. Failure to ensure critical findings like stroke, aortic dissection, or unexpected malignancy are received and acted upon can constitute malpractice even if the imaging interpretation was technically accurate.
