Editorial policy

This page explains who writes the SOMATIQ blog, how a post gets made, and what to do if you find a mistake. We build software for radiology, so we hold what we publish to the standard we would want from anyone writing about our patients' scans.

Who writes

Every post carries a byline.

  • Dr. Vishwanath R S, MD, CIIP, Co-Founder & CEO. Practising radiologist and Certified Imaging Informatics Professional. Author page
  • Naveen K, Co-Founder & Chief of AI. Engineer and data scientist working on AI for radiology. Author page

Some guides are bylined "SOMATIQ team". Those are written for the company, and a named person from the team above approves each one before it goes live.

How posts are made

We use AI tools in writing this blog, and we would rather say so than leave you guessing.

Many posts start from something a founder has already written, such as a LinkedIn post, an article or their notes. When that happens their original words stay at the centre of the post, and the source is shown at the top. Drafts are prepared with AI assistance from that material. A named person then reads the draft, corrects it, and approves it before publication. Nothing is published without a human sign-off, and the named author is responsible for what the post says.

Clinical review

Posts with clinical content, such as how a finding is measured, scored or reported, are reviewed by Dr. Vishwanath R S, MD, CIIP before publication. Reviewed posts show "Medically reviewed by" under the byline.

The blog is written for radiologists, centre owners and radiology IT teams. It is not medical advice for patients, and it does not replace clinical judgement or local guidelines.

Sourcing

  • We link to primary sources: the DICOM standard, IHE profiles, HL7 FHIR, the Acts and Rules themselves, peer-reviewed papers and the original articles we build on. When a post builds on another writer's work, we credit them by name and link to the specific piece.
  • We do not make up statistics. A number in a post either links to its source or comes from our own documented work.
  • Our benchmarks of AI models are internal studies. We label them as such, describe how they were run, and do not present them as peer-reviewed research.
  • Customer results are reported as the customer reported them, and attributed to them.
  • On law and regulation (for example the DPDP Act), we explain the text and link to it. That is not legal advice; talk to your counsel.

Conflicts of interest

SOMATIQ sells the products it writes about: the SOMATIQ Unified RIS-PACS, Somatiq Origin, SonoFlow, TelePractice and the Trinity Reporting Engine. When a post mentions our own products, it says so plainly. Buyer guides are written to be useful whichever vendor you choose, and we do not claim to be the only, first or best at anything.

Corrections

If you find an error, write to contact@somatiq.ai with the post's link and what you think is wrong. We read every message. If we agree, we fix the post and add a dated note at the end, for example: Correction, 12 November 2026: an earlier version gave the wrong DICOM tag for Series Description. We do not quietly change facts.

Updates and review dates

Standards, products and regulations change. We review posts periodically and show a "Last reviewed" date on each post. When a review changes the substance of a post we say what changed; small fixes such as typos and broken links are made without a note.
