A proven record of verdicts and settlements
A radiology error occurs when a deficiency in the diagnostic process results in a failure to diagnose, accurately diagnose, or delays diagnosis. Radiologists are one part of a critical team central to diagnosing illness by interpreting scans, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), X-rays, and other medical tests. A skilled Portland medical malpractice lawyer can review your claim to determine if medical negligence contributed to these common radiology errors leading to your damages.
Imaging quality may be impacted by faulty equipment. A technician’s inability to properly position a patient may also lead to poor image quality. An image’s quality is only as good as the machinery capturing the image and a medical provider’s ability to use the equipment adequately. Critical radiology errors can occur, leading to a missed diagnosis.
You may suffer severe health implications when a radiology image is misinterpreted. By misinterpreting an image, a Portland radiology error may lead to delayed treatment or the incorrect diagnosis and treatment of the wrong illness or disease.
A lack of core experience and knowledge in interpreting radiological tests can lead to a misinterpretation or a missed interpretation. Hiring sufficiently trained staff is vital to patient safety and health.
A radiologist must effectively relay the information discovered through testing to your doctor. The physician must then communicate the findings and create a course of treatment with you. Without communication, a patient may experience significant delays in treatment, potentially leading to worsening outcomes.
