In the original publication, part of conflict of statement was incorrectly published as “Dr. Bikdeli reports that he was approached by lawyers on behalf of plaintiffs in litigation related to IVC filters”. The correct statement should read as “Dr. Bikdeli reports that he is a consulting expert (on behalf of the plaintiff) for litigation related to a specific type of IVC filters”.
