USARAD has experienced continued growth in 2018 and by integrating with a blockchain based platform as well as various AI tools is able to further position itself for success in the years to come. USARAD's customers as well as its radiologists, gain numerous advantages. USARAD's existing radiologists are now able to receive payment at the conclusion of each and every interpretation. Additionally, USARAD is now able to tap into almost unlimited pool of radiologists. Furthermore, USARAD, its radiologists and imaging facilities are able to take advantage of image storage and sharing features which serve as a bridge to work closely with AI companies. New tools such as radiology crowd-reading features will allow multiple radiologists to provide feedback on the same imaging study to reduce or eliminate diagnostic errors.
