Built by radiologists, for the imaging team
MyRadAssistant is built and operated by The Radiology Academy Ltd — used by FRCR candidates since 2020, now extended into AI-assisted clinical reference.
What we believe about clinical AI
Who we are
MyRadAssistant is built and operated by The Radiology Academy Ltd, an English company (number 12768615) registered at 2nd Floor, Parkgates, Bury New Road, Prestwich M25 0TL.
The Radiology Academy has been used by FRCR candidates since 2020. MyRadAssistant extends that work into AI-assisted clinical reference for the whole imaging team and the radiology departments they work in.
Why we built it
Radiology has more evidence than any clinician can read. Guidelines update faster than textbooks. Trainees revise from a patchwork of sources, and consultants run on the radiology they happened to learn during training. We built MyRadAssistant to give every imaging professional — radiologist, reporting radiographer, sonographer or radiology nurse — the same fast, citation-anchored access to current evidence.
Founder
Dr Yiannis Skarparis is a Consultant Interventional Radiologist at Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and the founder of MyRadAssistant. He built The Radiology Academy in 2020 as a self-funded FRCR preparation platform. MyRadAssistant is the next step.
Regulatory and external validation
MyRadAssistant Q&A is a Class I medical device under UK MDR 2002, registered with the MHRA (manufacturer registration confirmed 9 May 2026). The work behind the product, including the verification-first architecture and evidence-tier approach, has been accepted as an ePoster at the RCR Global AI Conference 2026 (June 2026, QEII Centre, London).
Where we are based
