About This Course
Medical imaging plays an increasingly important role in personal injury and medical malpractice litigation. This program will guide attorneys and their teams through the essentials of working with DICOM files—the standard format for clinical images—and explain how they compare to common formats such as JPG or PDF.
Participants will explore how imaging files can be obtained, interpreted, and presented in discovery and trial, as well as the rules and concerns surrounding admissibility and secure handling.
The course also covers practical strategies for collaborating effectively with expert witnesses, exchanging images safely, and avoiding frequent errors that can undermine a case. Through real-world scenarios, attendees will see how current technology enhances efficiency, strengthens expert communication, and supports stronger case presentation.
Designed for lawyers, paralegals, and other legal professionals who regularly encounter medical records and imaging in their practice.
