Medical X-Ray Film Antitrust Litigation
(In re Medical X-Ray Film Antitrust Litigation, CV 93-5904 (E.D. NY 1998))

In the late 1980’s and early 1990’s, manufacturers, sellers, and distributors of medical X-ray film allegedly engaged in price fixing. Medical X-ray film includes all forms of medical X-ray and imaging films, such as general radiography films (both blue sensitive and green sensitive), mammography films, radiation therapy films, CRT and video imaging films, laser imaging films, duplicating films, spot films, and cine films. A class action was brought into Court and these allegations were settled for $39,360,000 minus legal fees and expenses. Potential claimants eligible for settlement included purchasers of medical X-ray film between January 1, 1989 and December 31, 1993 who directly purchased the film from Eastman Kodak Co., E.I. DuPont DeNemours & Co., Bayer Corp. f/k/a Miles, Inc., Agfa, and Fuji Medical Systems U.S.A., Inc. We assisted potential claimants, including medical centers and hospitals, in filing for settlement.
