FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Dive into the following questions to gain insights into what Radial offers and how it can improve your data collection and analysis in radiation oncology.
Why Radial?
Record and Verify and Treatment Planning Systems are used for individual patients, but they're not designed for big data. Radial is a database built for fast querying across many patients.
If Radial is web-based, does that mean I have to upload my data to the cloud?
No. Radial can be deployed locally on your own computer or server. Radial can also be deployed in the cloud.
Do I need to know any scripting?
Not at all. Radial's query builder allows you to filter data using a graphical interface. However, we plan to offer a user facing API in the future for our users that prefer a coding interface.
Can I export data from Radial?
Radial supports the export of data to CSV or JSON as well as various imaging formats in the Charts module.
Are there any limits on the number of patients or data size?
If Radial is deployed locally, the size of your database is only limited to the disk space you provide. For cloud deployment, we offer tiered pricing based on the number of patients.
