Subspecialist radiology from Switzerland
Our specialists for your radiology second opinion
With a second opinion, it matters who reads your images. That is why RadiologyCheck works with subspecialist radiologists, each with a clear focus and additional qualifications in it, such as the European Diplomas in Neuroradiology (EDiNR), Musculoskeletal Radiology (EDiMSK) or Paediatric Neuroradiology (EDiPNR). Several of them trained or work at the Inselspital, Bern University Hospital; Dr. Patrice Grehten is a senior consultant at Kinderspital Zürich.
Together, the five profiles cover neuroradiology and the spine, musculoskeletal MRI, prostate MRI with PI-RADS, paediatric neuroradiology and fetal MRI, and breast and women's imaging with skeletal radiology. You upload your images and previous reports online (DICOM, JPG or PDF), with an anonymous case number if you wish, and receive a structured written report as a PDF.
The cards below show each specialist's role and focus areas. The full profile describes their training, diplomas and how the review works.

Not sure who should read your scan?
What matters is the body region examined and your question. The focus areas on the cards show which examinations each specialist reviews. If your scan covers several areas or you are unsure, submit your case anyway: depending on the question, we assign it to the appropriate specialty. If you have questions beforehand, you can reach us through our contact page.
