Standalone imaging centres
Booking, payer decision and billing at the counter; modality worklist on the scanner; a report signed the same day — even when your radiologist reads from another city.
kNODE RIS · PACS · Cloud imaging
Radiology in the cloud — the images travel, your radiologist doesn't have to
A subscription RIS with an integrated DICOM archive and a zero-footprint viewer — from booking and payment at the front desk to a signed report read from anywhere, with a stated turnaround clock on every study.
Built for standalone imaging centres, diagnostic chains and teleradiology practices in India — with radiation-safety compliance enforced as gates in the workflow, not filed as reports beside it.

Who it's for
From a single centre to a reading network
One platform, one subscription model — add centres, modalities or readers as an entitlement change, never a migration.
Diagnostic chains
Cross-centre booking, one rate policy, franchise settlement and a consolidated view of turnaround and revenue — instead of one PACS per branch reconciled by phone.
Hub-and-spoke networks
Camps, mobile vans and satellite centres feed one archive. Studies route to a central reading pool with priors prefetched before the radiologist even opens the case.
Teleradiology practices
Credential-aware routing, committed turnaround clocks, dictation, peer review and per-study settlement — teleradiology as the core workflow, not an add-on.
What's inside
65 modules, nine groups, one study lifecycle
The highlights below — every module runs on the same cloud platform and is configured by your team, with clinical content owned by your own medical direction. Pick a group to browse.
Procedure & Protocol Master
Modality, protocol, expected series, contrast requirement, typical dose and slot length — everything downstream resolves against it.
Patient Registration & Front Office
Identity to your centre's own standard, duplicate detection and the walk-in queue — because nobody upstream registered this patient for you.
Order & Requisition
Orders from referring doctors, corporate panels or the counter — each arriving with a payer decision attached.
Appointment & Modality Scheduling
Slot-length-aware booking per machine, so an empty MRI slot — which is never recoverable — becomes visible before it happens.
Arrival & Safety Screening
Pregnancy, implants, renal function where contrast is planned, prior reactions — checked at arrival, recorded as a gate.
Acquisition & Study Start
The radiographer starts the study from the modality worklist with a barcode scan — no re-typing patient details on the scanner console.
Study QA, Repeat & Recall
Wrong-patient correction, repeats and recalls as named states with their own audit trail — never a quiet overwrite.
Critical Finding Communication
An escalation ladder that runs on the clock until a human acknowledges — for the finding that cannot wait for the courier.
Turnaround Time Tracking
Five measured segments, each owned by a different party — because a single TAT number hides the problem it should expose.
DICOM Archive & Study Index
Series counted against the modality's own count, storage commitment confirmed to the scanner only after the cloud archive confirms.
Zero-Footprint Web Viewer
Progressive streaming, no plug-in, no local copy — first image in under three seconds, priors already prefetched.
Storage Tiering & Lifecycle
Hot for review, warm for the active period, archive for the retention term — with retrieval delays shown as a stated wait, never a hang.
3D Reconstruction & MPR
Multiplanar and volume views in the browser for the studies that need more than a stack scroll.
Annotation & Key Images
Measurements, markings and key-image selection that travel with the study — into the report and the referrer's view.
Modality Gateway
One small box on your modality network — the only thing that runs on your hardware — with a durable local cache and days-remaining on screen.
Modality Worklist
Answered from cache when the link is down and marked as cached — the centre keeps scanning through an outage.
Resumable, Rate-Limited Upload
Chunked and losslessly compressed; an interrupted transfer resumes at the chunk, never from zero — built for the link your centre actually has.
Radiologist Pool & Roster
Your contracted readers, their credentials per modality and centre, their availability — the roster the routing engine runs on.
Study Routing & Assignment
Each study assigned to a reader who is available, credentialed for this modality at this centre, and inside the committed turnaround.
Reporting & Voice Dictation
Structured templates and dictation in the same screen as the viewer — signed once, delivered everywhere.
Peer Review & Discrepancy
Discrepancies recorded without attaching blame — because a rate nobody records is a rate nobody can improve.
Second Opinion & Addendum
A signed report is never edited. An addendum creates a new version, and every original recipient is re-notified automatically.
AI Triage & Vendor Connect
Third-party AI can flag and prioritise a study — it returns a flag, never a finding. Diagnosis stays with your radiologist.
AERB Equipment Licence Register
Acquisition on equipment outside a valid licence is blocked, not flagged — a licensing condition treated as a gate.
PC-PNDT Form F
An ultrasound does not proceed without the completed statutory register — enforced at arrival, from release one.
TLD / Occupational Dose
Badge assignment and occupational dose records for your staff, maintained the way the inspector expects to find them.
Patient Dose & DRL Tracking
Dose records ingested per study and compared against your centre's own diagnostic reference levels — set by your radiation safety officer, not shipped as a default.
Contrast & Allergy Pre-Check
Renal function, prior reactions and consent checked before contrast is drawn up — a workflow step, not a checkbox after the fact.
ABDM / ABHA Linkage
Health-account linkage for the patients who want their imaging in the national record.
GST & e-Invoice
GST-correct invoices and returns data for B2C and B2B billing, out of the box.
Consent, Privacy & DPDP
Purpose-bound consent, revocable sharing and erasure workflows designed to the DPDP Act 2023 and the 2025 Rules.
Gates enforce, your RSO decides — safety criteria, contrast protocols, DRLs and critical-finding lists are your centre's clinical content: tenant-scoped, versioned and attributable. The product never ships a clinical default as authoritative.
Referring Doctor Master
The doctors who send you patients, their preferences and their volumes — the commercial relationship the centre actually runs on.
Corporate, Panel & TPA
Corporate contracts, panel rates and TPA credit — the payer decision resolved at booking, not chased after the report.
Rate Lists & Price Matrix
Procedure pricing by rate list, corporate contract and centre — one price policy across the chain.
Billing, Receipts & Credit
Collection or credit at the first stage of the study lifecycle — because at an imaging centre, no payer decision means no study.
Packages & Health Checks
Screening packages and camp pricing, settled cleanly against the procedures actually performed.
Report & Image Delivery
WhatsApp to the patient, e-mail to the referrer, portal for both — every delivery recorded so it can be replayed on an addendum.
Referrer Portal & Viewer
Referring doctors see their patients' reports and images in the same zero-footprint viewer — no CD, no courier.
Secure Study Sharing
Sharing by revocable link, never by copy — the recipient always sees the current report version, and you can withdraw access.
Online Booking & Slots
Patients and referrers book real modality slots online — reminders included, because a no-show on an MRI is money gone.
Why kNODE RIS · PACS
Built for the imaging centre, not the hospital basement
A hospital PACS assumes the ward sent the order, somebody else billed, and the images never leave the building. Your centre has none of that — so this product is different where it counts.
Images that actually travel
A CT study is commonly 100–500 MB, and your link is shared and sometimes unreliable. Upload is chunked, resumable, compressed and rate-limited — an interruption resumes at the chunk, never from zero.
An outage never stops scanning
The worklist answers from cache, studies queue in the gateway's durable buffer — about a week of a mid-sized centre's output, with days-remaining shown on screen. Release resumes when the link does.
Compliance that blocks, not warns
Equipment outside a valid AERB licence cannot acquire. An ultrasound without Form F does not proceed. The product protects your licence instead of documenting the breach.
Teleradiology as the core, not a bolt-on
Routing by credential, availability and committed turnaround; priors prefetched at assignment; a viewer that needs nothing installed. Your reader in another city opens the study in seconds.
Sharing by link, never by copy
A revocable link addresses the study, not a file — so after an addendum, every recipient sees the current truth, and access can be withdrawn. No CDs, no unaccounted copies.
Storage you can see and price
Stored bytes are metered by tier from day one, and lifecycle policies move studies from hot to warm to archive automatically. You know what a terabyte costs you before the bill arrives.
Under the hood
Engineered around one truth: a study cannot be re-acquired
The platform decisions underneath the product exist so an image is never lost, never leaked, and never slow to open.
✓
Commit-then-confirm archiving
The scanner is told its study is safe only after the cloud archive — replicated across regions, versioned — has confirmed it. No optimistic answers.
✓
One gateway, nothing else on site
A single small machine on your modality network handles worklist, caching and upload. Everything else — including the viewer — is the cloud.
✓
Streaming viewer, no install
Progressive streaming through a CDN with short-lived signed URLs — first image in under three seconds, on any browser, with no local copy left behind.
✓
Tenant isolation, enforced in the database
Row-level security forced on every table plus per-tenant storage prefixes — isolation never depends on the correctness of a query.
✓
Audit that covers looking, not just editing
Every report change and every study view is attributable to a person, a time and a reason — because in imaging, who looked matters as much as who edited.
✓
Online, backward-compatible releases
Centres run six or seven days a week, so there is no downtime window — migrations are online and rollback is rehearsed, not assumed.
