Radiologists in Lancaster County

Attorneys Jim Kilcoyne and Jacqueline Drygas successfully defended two radiologists in Lancaster County following a five-day jury trial.  Plaintiffs asserted that both radiologists failed to recognize imaging abnormalities that were suspicious for breast cancer and recommend an immediate biopsy. They alleged that the delay caused Plaintiff to suffer advanced breast cancer. In the face of a seven-figure demand, Jim and Jackie established that both radiologists met the standard of care by recognizing a focal asymmetry and recommending close follow up imaging to watch the area. Evidence was also presented that Plaintiff’s treatment and prognosis would have been the same even if there was an earlier diagnosis.
