Your Brain Deserves
a Specialist —
From Wherever You Are.
Upload your MRI. Receive a video assessment from a surgeon who has held over 4,000 brains in her hands — within 14 hours, without leaving your town.
"I drove three hours for every appointment. Now I send my scans from my kitchen table and get answers by morning."
"My community hospital said they needed a subspecialist before proceeding. Cortex gave us that clarity before Monday rounds."
"It was 2 AM. I had been reading everything I could find online. By morning, I had a real answer — not a search result."
"I didn't know a second opinion was even possible without flying to a major medical center. This changed everything."
From Scan to Clarity — Without Leaving Home
Four steps. No waiting rooms. No referral required.
Upload Your Scan
Use our HIPAA-encrypted portal to upload your MRI, CT, or imaging report — along with a brief clinical summary.
Accepted formats: DICOM, JPEG, PDF. No account required to begin. Encryption is end-to-end from your device.
Expert Review Begins
Your scan reaches a fellowship-trained neurosurgeon within the hour. She reads the full imaging series — not a summary, not a delegate.
Average review time: 14 hours. Expedited pathway available for urgent cases within 4 hours.
Your Video Assessment
A private, unhurried video call — she walks through exactly what she sees, what it means, and what she recommends.
Average call duration: 28 minutes. A written summary with imaging annotations is provided within 24 hours.
Your Care Pathway
You receive a written report, annotated imaging, and a clear recommendation — whether that's monitoring, surgery, or a different specialist.
Reports are formatted for your referring physician and accepted by most major insurance carriers for pre-authorization.
Expertise That Travels
"I had a scan. My local doctor said it needed a specialist. I had no idea how to find one — or how to afford the trip."

- Post-surgical follow-up
You're 3 Hours from the Nearest Neurologist. That Distance Shouldn't Define Your Care.
Whether you've just received a diagnosis or been living with uncertainty for months, you deserve a subspecialist's eyes on your imaging — not a general neurologist's reassurance, not a Google result, not a 4-month wait for an appointment.
"My husband's neurologist said wait-and-watch. I needed someone to tell me if that was right. I needed certainty."
- Second opinion on existing diagnosis
- Interpretation of confusing radiology reports
- Pre-surgical question preparation
- Understanding treatment options
- Guidance on next clinical steps

- Rapid pre-operative neurosurgical clearance
- Complex imaging interpretation
- Subspecialty second opinion for documentation
