From the supplier: Preparing to litigate a malpractice claim for failure to diagnose breast cancer requires an understanding of how breast cancer develops and the diagnostic difficulties it poses. The typical defendants are the radiologist interpreting the mammogram or the gynecologist performing the physical exam. Their conduct would need to be compared with professional standards. Litigation will typically involve expert testimony and evidence that informs the jury about how breast cancer develops.
