Diagnosis Error Lawyer

Diagnosis error, like misreading of test results and other radiology errors can lead to harmful or unnecessary treatments from a wrong diagnosis or  lasting disability or death when a treatable condition is discovered too late. Other doctors — and ultimately patients — depend upon the results from X-rays, ultrasounds and imaging scans to make informed decisions about diagnosis and treatment.

Winning a diagnosis error medical malpractice claim against a radiologist, hospital lab or treating physicians requires an understanding of high-tech medical equipment, knowledge of standard practices in radiology and the trial experience to explain complex issues to a jury.

If you believe that the negligence of a radiologist, technician or doctor led to injury or a wrongful death, accomplished attorneys will evaluate your case in a free initial consultation. They represent malpractice victims across South Carolina and surrounding states.

The powerful diagnostic tools available today enable doctors to detect cancer and tumors, blood clots and aneurysms, bone fractures and ligament tears, fetal defects, heart defects and other serious conditions. Early detection through X-rays, sonography (ultrasound), MRI, CT scan, PET scan or VQ scan gives patients the chance to prevent further damage, undergo life-saving surgery or receive life-extending therapies.

Adverse client outcomes occur when radiology errors are the basis for treating (or not treating) a patient:

• Technicians improperly conduct tests and scans
• Radiologists misinterpret diagnostics, leading to misdiagnosis of cancer and unnecessary treatment (e.g., mastectomy) or delayed diagnosis (cancer has spread too far to be treated).
• Treating physicians ignore lab reports, misread the results, draw bad conclusions or fail to get a second opinion
