description

Interpretation by a specialist for difficult and rare cases.
We provide expert radiology opinions attached with multimedia compatible with electronic medical records and DICOM servers.

In the remote radiology diagnosis of RADIOLOGY LOUNGE, a diagnostic radiologist with extensive experience in CT, MRI, and PET-CT completes radiology diagnosis reports based on multimodality (a combination of CT, MRI, and PET).

We provide the accurate staging of malignancies and, when diagnosis is not confirmed, likely differential diagnoses and future directions.

About the interpretation results

The interpretation results are usually sent to your personal data folder within 2-5 business days after the request of diagnosis.

As to immediate diagnoses, if the upload is completed by noon (Japan Standard Time (JST)), the results will be sent by 24:00 (JST) on the same day, and if it is after noon, the results will be sent by 24:00 (JST) the next day.

When diagnosis is not determined in time, provisional diagnoses will be sent by the same schedule, and official diagnoses may be sent later.

Precaution of Remote Radiology Diagnosis

This service is only provided to doctors with medical qualifications outside of Japan.

The information provided by our company based on this service is an image opinion for users to use as a reference for medical decisions. Our company does not provide image diagnosis to users.

Quotation or reproduction of image opinions provided by our company based on this service is strictly prohibited. However, this does not apply if our company has given permission.

Regardless of whether or not you use the image opinions provided by our company based on this service, we are not responsible in any way for any consequences that may occur to users, their patients, or their related parties.

MRI alone can be used in cases when a fracture is not suspected in the orthopedic diagnosis, or when it is certain that the presence of microcalcifications will not affect the diagnosis. As a rule, a plain Xp should be attached as a reference, and there is no additional charge.

Please be as detailed and specific as possible in describing the clinical course and any points you would like us to analyze (e.g., lesion evolution, extension of disease, anatomical structures, etc.).

In principle, you may ask questions about the reading only once, but we may not be able to respond to your questions if the above information is insufficient. In addition to written documents and additional attachment files, we may respond to your questions by telephone, online interview (e.g., zoom), or audio file upload.

EXAMPLE

Usage of Multimodality Remote Radiology Diagnosis

  • Diagnosis of Lung Cancer

    Plain chest Xray + contrast CT of whole body + brain MRI + DWIBS - counted as 2 modalities; if PET-CT is added to the above: counted as 3 modalities

  • Diagnosis of pulmonary emboli

    Plain chest Xray at hospital visit + Plain chest CT + Contrast CT from chest to leg - counted as one modality

  • Comparison of tumor size

    Requesting a comparative reading of a contrast-enhanced MRI of the liver a few days ago with reference to a contrast-enhanced CT 3 months ago - Counted as one modality (the CT is treated as a reference.).

HOW TO USE

How to use remote radiology diagnosis

  • Recommended use

    Except for cases such as non-neoplastic lung disease in which CT is solely helpful, we recommend multimodality diagnosis request such as CT & MRI in consideration of diagnostic accuracy and cost.

  • Correspondence range

    If there is no suspicion of fracture in the diagnosis of orthopedic surgery, or if it is certain that the presence of microcalcifications does not affect the diagnosis, MRI alone can be used.

    As a general rule, plain Xp should be attached as a reference and there is no additional charge.

  • Request for interpretation

    Please describe the clinical course and specific points you want to know (progress of lesions, anatomical structure, etc.) in as much detail as possible.

    In principle, you can ask questions about the interpretation only once, but if the above information is insufficient, we may not be able to respond.

    In addition to adding documents and attached files, we may answer questions by phone, online interviews such as zoom, or sending audio files.
