-
$2.9 million – missed stroke on CT scan leading to permanent disability
-
$1.4 million – delayed MRI report causing late cancer diagnosis
-
$800,000 – failure to communicate abnormal X-ray findings to treating physician
Compensation often covers emergency treatment, corrective surgeries, rehabilitation, lost income, and the personal losses associated with delayed or missed diagnoses.
Case Timelines and Duration
Florida radiology malpractice claims begin with a presuit investigation and a statutory notice period before filing a lawsuit.
Typical timeline:
-
3–5 months – records gathering and expert radiology review
-
90 days – presuit notice and response window
-
12–20 months – litigation, discovery, and negotiations
Straightforward cases may resolve in 18 months, while complex multi-study errors involving multiple facilities can extend to 2–3 years.
Average Settlement Ranges
Public Florida radiology error settlements range from $500,000 to $3 million, with higher figures when the delay or mistake leads to life-altering harm. Multi-defendant or hospital-linked cases may exceed these numbers in confidential agreements.
