Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Radiology Assistant 2.0 at 4.5 against ResolutionMD's 2.7.

ResolutionMD's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and review sentiment (67% vs 36%). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Radiology Assistant 2.0 holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Radiology Assistant 2.0 has 30 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of ResolutionMD's written reviews are positive against 36% of Radiology Assistant 2.0's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

ResolutionMD ships an update every 4 months, Radiology Assistant 2.0 every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on June 7, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
