2. The Problem Especially general and solo radiologists face often situations in which they are in need for a peer consultation for a difficult case.

3. The Problem This becomes a: Workflow issue because time consuming literature research might delay the workflow Medical-legal issue if providing potentially an inaccurate report. Desired solution: radiologists who are in need for a case consultation receive such in a timely manner!

4. Approach to the solution This tool allows radiologists taking images from the current case study and sending it to a dedicated section in a protected community of over 13,000 Radiology professionals OR directly to a specialist's workstation. This community has been used for several years for case consultation Opinions about cases are usually provided within minutes to hours.

5. Approach to the solution No installation is needed and thus can be used in an environment with limited user rights. The program mask: is short and intuitive is short and intuitive provides several options for provides several options for taking the image from the workstation taking the image from the workstation title title short description where a question can be placed short description where a question can be placed optional case relevant parameters optional case relevant parameters
