Imaging Expert Witnesses

What is an imaging expert witness?
Imaging expert witness candidates are experienced in a wide range of medical imaging technologies, including x-ray, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance (MRI), nuclear imaging, positron emission tomography (PET), and ultrasound. Imaging expert witnesses often hold advanced degrees (PhD) and/or are medical doctors that specialize in radiographic imaging. These experts understand the multitude of imaging processes and the protection of staff and patients.
What types of cases require an imaging expert witness?
An imaging expert witness could provide expertise in intellectual property matters, such as a patent litigation, a trade secret dispute, or a patent case or proceeding in the International Trade Commission (ITC). An expert in imaging technology might also provide testimony in a torts matter like product liability, or a medical malpractice case or personal injury case.
What litigation support work might an imaging expert witness be expected to perform?
Expert witness services by an imaging expert witness could include imaging studies, failure analyses, providing expert opinions, research and authoring expert reports, deposition testimony, and courtroom testimony at a trial. In addition, clients may seek an imaging industry expert for pre-litigation consulting work. In a high-profile case, or litigation involving a significant financial stake, a law firm may request a subject matter expert with prior expert witness testimony experience.
Cahn Litigation Services reviews each project in detail, and can help determine if the ideal expert should be a radiology expert, medical expert, interventional radiologist, physician, or diagnostic radiologist. Whether the case involves diagnostic radiology, medical imaging, diffusion tensor imaging, interventional radiology, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), neuroradiology, traumatic brain injury or ultrasound, Cahn Litigation Services has the experience required to turn a search for an imaging expert witness around quickly, providing the right balance of expertise and testimony experience.
