The Pennsylvania Superior Court has declined to toss a $3 million verdict that a Jefferson County jury awarded against two radiologists who failed to detect a woman’s lung cancer.

The ruling in Palar v. Wohlwend affirmed a decision from the Jefferson County Court of Common Pleas that had similarly rejected the defendant doctor’s efforts to reverse the jury’s findings.
