Summary
The Supreme Court of New Jersey reversed the summary‑judgment ruling, holding that a medical doctor may competently testify about the chiropractic standard of care concerning x‑ray interpretation, that the common‑knowledge doctrine does not excuse the need for expert testimony here, and that a chiropractor owes a duty to recognize soft‑tissue abnormalities on x‑rays and refer the patient for appropriate medical treatment.
