Verdict
The clearest difference is price: CIRSE at Free against Radiology Core's $9.99. CIRSE also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.9) and update cadence (monthly vs every 6 months). Radiology Core's advantage is ratings volume (50 vs 5) and chart position (#79 vs unranked). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
