Attorney Richard Tynan recently obtained a defense verdict when a plaintiff’s conservator claimed that the defendant radiologist deviated from the standard of care in interpreting a CT scan which, she alleged, demonstrated signs of stroke. She further alleged that had the CT scan been properly interpreted, the ward would have been admitted to the hospital and started on Heparin or another anti-coagulant, thus preventing the massive injury which followed. At the time of trial, plaintiff was totally bed-ridden and dependent on nursing home staff for all activities of daily living and assistance with all bodily functions. The case was tried in the Hartford Superior Court.
