See only what matters
to your subspecialty

Your feed shows only cases in your subspecialty — not everything on the platform. No general noise. No irrelevant posts. Just MSK, neuro, chest, or whatever you have set. The filter is the product.

This is immediately more useful than any WhatsApp group where all modalities and all specialties are mixed together in a single undifferentiated stream. On Raydiac, a neuroradiologist never sees a USG abdomen post unless they choose to.

  • Filter by subspecialty, modality, case status, and date — persists across sessions
  • Cases show patient age and sex only — all identifiable data stripped at upload
  • Proper DICOM slice rendering via Cornerstone.js — not compressed JPEG photographs
  • No likes, no follower counts, no trending — clinical content only

A second opinion
in 60 seconds

When you are looking at a scan right now and you are uncertain, you need to consult someone immediately. The friction has to be near-zero. Quick Consult is designed to feel as fast as WhatsApp — but to do everything WhatsApp cannot.

Select 3–5 key slices, write your question, choose whether to send privately to trusted connections or to all verified subspecialists in that modality. The consultation is documented with a timestamp. Both parties have a record.

If a case outcome is ever questioned in a medicolegal context, a radiologist who sought a documented second opinion has significant professional protection. A WhatsApp screenshot does not provide this.

  • Send privately to trusted connections or broadcast to a subspecialty group
  • Proper DICOM slice rendering — never a compressed photograph
  • Every consultation timestamped and saved to both parties’ records
  • Can be initiated from within the DICOM viewer in 2 taps
  • Linked to a marketplace case if consultation happens during paid reporting
03 · Teaching File

Every case you touch,
permanently yours

Every case you post, respond to, or bookmark is automatically saved to your Teaching File — a searchable, personal clinical library tagged by modality, diagnosis, organ system, and finding.

After two years of active use on Raydiac, a radiologist has 500+ documented cases in their library. Cases they posted, cases they contributed to, cases with confirmed outcomes. This is a professional asset that exists nowhere else and cannot be recreated on any other platform.

You can share specific cases or curated collections with chosen colleagues or residents you mentor. Sharing is controlled and revocable. Nothing is public unless you choose to make it so.

  • Auto-accumulates from community cases, quick consults, and marketplace cases
  • Searchable by modality, subspecialty, organ system, diagnosis, and finding
  • Add personal notes to any entry — visible only to you
  • Create named collections and share with specific people
  • Leaving Raydiac means losing the library — it lives here, nowhere else

Stop writing
from scratch

Radiologists lose 5–10 minutes per report starting from a blank page. Multiplied across a full working day of 30–50 studies, that is hours of unnecessary effort every single day.

Raydiac's template library provides community-built, peer-reviewed structured templates for every modality and subspecialty. Chest CT, Brain MRI, Liver study, Knee MRI — each template provides the standard structure, measurement fields, impression framework, and relevant scoring systems.

  • Scoring systems built in: BI-RADS, LI-RADS, TIRADS, PI-RADS, ASPECTS, and more
  • Bookmark and personalise any template — your custom version is private
  • Templates are versioned and flagged when clinical guidelines change
  • Community-contributed and peer-reviewed before publishing
  • Used directly within the marketplace reporting workspace
05 · Marketplace

Your expertise.
Paid fairly.

Senior subspecialists give expert opinions every day — on WhatsApp, over phone calls, as professional favours. This expertise has real value. Raydiac creates a structured system for it to be compensated.

Diagnostic centers post paid cases to the marketplace with clinical history, DICOM upload, urgency tier, and a fee. Radiologists matching the subspecialty can accept, report using the structured workspace, and submit. Payment releases via UPI within minutes of the center accepting the report.

Invited cases from centers who have worked with you before appear at the top of your Marketplace tab — an established professional relationship earns you priority routing. The open pool of cases from other centers sits below.

  • Three urgency tiers: Routine (24–48h), Urgent (4–6h), STAT (under 1 hour)
  • You keep 85–90% of every case fee — Raydiac takes a small platform commission
  • Payment via UPI within minutes of report acceptance — no invoice chasing
  • Full DICOM viewer and structured report template within the reporting workspace
  • Fire a Quick Consult from within a paid case if you need a peer opinion
  • Completed cases automatically save to your Teaching File (anonymised)

Understanding the problem

Why peer consultation matters more
in radiology than in any other specialty

Radiology is a uniquely isolated specialty. Unlike surgery, internal medicine, or psychiatry, radiologists rarely interact directly with patients or with the clinicians ordering their studies. Their clinical reasoning happens alone, in a dark room, with only the images in front of them. This isolation is compounded in India by the acute radiologist shortage and the uneven distribution of subspecialty expertise.

The subspecialty gap in Indian radiology

India trains general radiologists through MD and DNB programmes, but subspecialty expertise — neuroradiology, MSK, chest, paediatric radiology, interventional — is concentrated in a small number of academic centres in large metros. A radiologist in Ludhiana, Nashik, or Bhubaneswar encountering a rare finding has no formal mechanism to access subspecialty expertise locally. The informal network of WhatsApp contacts is the only option available today. Raydiac is designed to close this gap by making subspecialty expertise accessible across geography — and by compensating it fairly when accessed through the marketplace.

Second opinion radiology — why documentation matters

Seeking a second opinion on a complex or uncertain case is good medical practice. In most specialties, it happens through formal referral systems with documented outcomes. In radiology, it happens informally over phone or WhatsApp — with no record that a second opinion was sought, no documentation of what was communicated, and no feedback on whether the opinion was correct. Raydiac turns informal peer consultation into a documented clinical process. Every Quick Consult on Raydiac is timestamped, saved, and linked to the case. This is not just a workflow improvement — it is a form of professional protection that every radiologist deserves but almost none currently has.

Teleradiology in India — the opportunity for radiologists

Teleradiology — the practice of reading radiology studies remotely — is a growing sector in India, driven by the radiologist shortage and the expansion of diagnostic imaging infrastructure into smaller cities and towns. However, most existing teleradiology arrangements are informal: diagnostic centers call known contacts, fees are negotiated ad hoc, reports are delivered over email or WhatsApp, and there is no quality accountability framework. Raydiac's marketplace formalises this arrangement. Diagnostic centers post cases with structured clinical histories. Radiologists accept and report through a professional workspace. Payment is automatic and transparent. This is teleradiology done properly — and it creates a meaningful income stream for radiologists practicing in India today.

Frequently asked questions

Everything a radiologist
needs to know before joining

Is Raydiac free for radiologists?
Yes. All community features — the subspecialty feed, Quick Consult, Teaching File, and Report Templates — are completely free for every NMC-verified radiologist. There are no monthly fees, no subscription tiers, and no usage limits on community features. The marketplace is earn-based: radiologists keep 85–90% of every paid case fee, with a small platform commission on completed cases only.
How does peer consultation work on Raydiac?
When you encounter a case you are uncertain about, tap Quick Consult from within the DICOM viewer, select 3–5 key slices, write your question, and route it privately to trusted connections or to all verified subspecialists in that modality. The entire flow takes under 60 seconds. Every consultation is documented with a timestamp and saved to both parties’ records.
How is Raydiac different from WhatsApp for radiology consultation?
On WhatsApp, images are compressed and lose diagnostic quality, there is no clinical context structure, responses are anonymous, and nothing is documented. On Raydiac, every case uses proper DICOM rendering, every respondent is NMC-verified in their subspecialty, consultations are timestamped and saved, and case outcomes can be documented and shared. The difference is the difference between a professional tool and a workaround.
How does the Raydiac marketplace work?
Diagnostic centers post paid cases with clinical history, DICOM upload, and an urgency tier. Radiologists matching the subspecialty can accept, report using the structured workspace, and submit. Payment releases via UPI within minutes of the center accepting the report. Three urgency tiers: Routine (24–48 hours), Urgent (4–6 hours), and STAT (under 1 hour at 2–3x pricing).
What is the Teaching File and why does it matter?
The Teaching File is a personal clinical library that automatically accumulates every case you interact with on Raydiac — posted, responded to, or bookmarked. It is searchable by modality, diagnosis, and organ system. After two years of active use, you have 500+ documented cases with confirmed outcomes. This is a professional asset that cannot be replicated on WhatsApp or any other platform.
How does NMC verification work on Raydiac?
Raydiac uses the NMC Indian Medical Register public API to automatically verify your registration number at signup. For post-2021 registrations not yet on the IMR, a manual document review is completed within 48 hours. Unverified accounts can browse in read-only mode while verification is in progress. Verification is required before posting cases, responding to consults, or accepting marketplace cases.
Is patient data safe when I upload DICOM studies?
Yes. All DICOM files are anonymised server-side before any case is viewable on the platform. Patient name, date of birth, ID, and accession number are stripped automatically using pydicom at the point of upload. This is not optional or configurable — it happens every time, automatically. Patient age and sex are preserved for clinical relevance.
Can I use Raydiac if I practice in a smaller city?
Raydiac is specifically designed for radiologists practicing outside large metros. The platform exists precisely because subspecialty expertise is concentrated in a few cities while the rest of the country goes without. Whether you are in Ludhiana, Nashik, Coimbatore, or Bhubaneswar — Raydiac gives you access to verified subspecialists you currently cannot reach through any formal channel.
