Overview:
Radiology Diagnosis (“we” “us” or “our”) is an online radiologist platform. Our platform enables an individual (“User” or “you”) to seek the expertise of a radiologist to review an existing diagnostic image or report. This process involves the radiologist analyzing the images and providing their professional opinion or evaluation, known as a ‘Second Opinion’. This service allows individuals to gain additional insights and perspectives on their medical condition or diagnosis from a qualified radiology specialist.
About Second Opinions:
It is important to note that it is your responsibility to have obtained an initial read or interpretation of your diagnostic images from a qualified healthcare professional. A second opinion provided by a Radiologist on our platform should not be solely relied upon without consulting with your primary care physician or your treating medical provider. It is always recommended to discuss and consider multiple medical opinions before making any crucial healthcare decisions.
About our Service:
It is important to understand that each Radiologist providing a second opinion through our Website is an independent medical professional. Radiology Diagnosis does not engage in the practice of medicine or any other licensed profession.

We do not directly control or assume responsibility for the professional opinions or actions of the Radiologists. Radiology Diagnosis does not interfere or influence the professional judgment of the Radiologist.

These risks, although uncommon, could potentially include:
- Instances where transmitted information might be insufficient, such as cases of low-resolution images or incomplete data;
- Possible delays in providing a second opinion due to unforeseen electronic equipment failures;
- A potential for judgment errors in the rare event that access to your complete medical records is unavailable;
- While our electronic systems utilize robust network and software security protocols to safeguard your health information, there is a small chance that these security measures could fail, potentially leading to a privacy breach;
- Occasional software, system, or technology updates by Radiology Diagnosis, which are essential for maintaining our service standards but might cause temporary service interruptions or system modifications;
- The selection of a Radiologist with a subspecialty that may not perfectly align with the requirements for interpreting your specific images, possibly resulting in additional time needed to provide a second opinion.
We at Radiology Diagnosis are committed to minimizing these risks and providing a secure and reliable platform for online radiology consultations. Your awareness and understanding of these potential risks contribute to a more effective and secure use of our services.
