Abstract
RadioVolunteer, a project launched by the Royal College of Radiologists of Thailand, combinedsocial, technological and management innovation, and integrated government, private and non-profit sectors, to overcome a complex task that only one sector could not seamlessly complete. Working on a digital platform which allowed radiologist volunteers from any part of Thailand to promptly read and report chest radiographs of patients with corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) who resided in prisons across the country. Its digitized reporting format helped triage patients with Covid-19 pneumonia, and also screen for tuberculosis.
