As the number of malpractice cases to grow, radiologists will continue to become increasingly involved in litigation. The aetiology of radiological error is multi-factorial.

Communication issues between the radiologists and physicians and between the radiologists and patients are also presented. Every radiologist should understand the sources of error in diagnostic radiology as well as the elements of negligence that form the basis of malpractice litigation.
