Prenuvo whole body MRI misses impending stroke, sued for malpractice.

Summary:

37 year old patient suffers a catastrophic stroke 8 months after undergoing full body MRI. Post-stroke the patient has "suffered left hand and leg paralysis, weakness on his left side affecting movement and motor function, impaired vision, anxiety, depression and chronic headaches, among other concerns. "

Attorneys get a copy of the full body MRI and contend that the Prenuvo radiologist missed signs of the forthcoming incident including “abrupt focal 60% narrowing and irregularity of the proximal right middle cerebral artery.”

The patient's attorneys also file a copy of the Prenuvo report as part of the lawsuit.
