Luminis Health cyberattack delays cancer treatment and test results

One woman from Gambrills told WBAL-TV 11 News she is waiting on the results of imaging done at the Luminis Imaging Center in Odenton 10 days ago.

Official response and confirmed impact

“These cyber criminals are not just holding Luminis hostage for money or whatever they’re asking for, they’re holding my test results,” Ellen said.

“My possible medical future or future treatment may be delayed because of it.”

The imaging was needed to determine if further treatment is needed for a serious health diagnosis she is facing.

The attack is also impacting a 44-year-old single mom from Anne Arundel County who has an aggressive form of breast cancer.

She told 11 News she is on a very specific, time-sensitive six-month regimen of a newly FDA-approved chemotherapy infusion.

The woman was scheduled to get her second infusion on Thursday, but was told Wednesday morning it was cancelled because the healthcare company was unable to provide an alternative location.

“I feel like this can’t be real. These people, I’m putting my trust in these people, and I’m disappointed,” she said.
