Just search "mri review free" on Google for examples.
Of course sending your MRI to 10 different doctors takes a lot of time, like needing 10 different CDs of all your MRIs (medical industry standard still seems to be using CDs instead of USB drives for diagnostic imagery, at least in the U.S.).
What if there was a secure service where you could send your MRIs to, and on your behalf they would make copies of your MRIs and send them to dozens of different doctors for MRI review and 2nd/3rd/4th opinions? You would then receive communication from dozens of different doctors and many 2nd/3rd/4th/etc. opinions. Then based on the diagnosis and interaction with the doctor you can decide who to use. After all, not all doctors are equal and some are definitely better and more qualified than others, especially when it comes to surgeries.
I deal with a lot of chronic pain, and I've spent months trying to get diagnosed and treated and this idea popped into my head because of the frustration of trying to get diagnosed and treated for chronic pain. The normal route of GP -> Referral to specialist isn't working out for me, mostly because the specialists I end up with all seem to be shit (the problem of living in a small town).
