Plaintiff alleged that our client failed to properly interpret and report the extent of carotid artery stenosis on the study, resulting in the absence of surgical intervention and a subsequent stroke one year later. Claimed injuries included dominant hand weakness, difficulties with word retrieval, and an inability to read more than a few words at a time.

Through live in-court radiologic demonstrations, it was established that the stenosis was properly measured and accurately reported. Through expert testimony, it was demonstrated how the neck MRA interpreted by our client in fact revealed mild stenosis while a neck CTA preformed three days earlier revealed severe stenosis.

The jury returned a verdict in favor of our client within 30 minutes.
