At the foundation of everything we do at vRad is the goal of helping our clients provide the highest level of patient care regardless of the time and location.

We have updated our RPC (Radiology Patient Care) Indices to now include five years of data, from 2011-2015.  In addition, we have enhanced the precision of RPC findings definitions using natural language processing (NLP) to differentiate between positive, critical, incidental, negative and/or normal findings.

vRad announced it has added more than 120 board-certified radiologists since January 2016 in response to a surge in year-over-year imaging volume through June 2016. The company is on track to interpret nearly 6.5 million patient studies for the year and plans to add 80 additional physicians  by year end.
