Helping Your Students
Traditionally, homeopathic students have been encouraged to postpone their introduction to computer software until they’ve spent some time mastering repertory basics. Today's students, however, have grown up using computers, and are often anxious to begin working with what to them are simply “the basics”.Whenever you choose to introduce computers to your curriculum, RadarOpus is well suited to the task of introducing repertories in general, their history and development, and the structure and limitations of various repertory formats.Repertory Studies
Today’s version of the Synthesis Repertory, Synthesis X, is a carefully indexed database, which can be completely rearranged to offer alternate views of repertory information.Would you like to work with Kent’s original repertory? No problem! One click in RadarOpus rearranges the Synthesis X database to show only the original Kent information, in its original format. Another click returns the full, modern Synthesis with all remedy and rubric additions displayed. An entire timeline of “Repertory Views”, corresponding to important historical developments in both the literature and homeopathy itself, is included with RadarOpus. What better way for students to explore the evolution of the repertory?Concepts is a unique tool, ideally suited for introducing the repertory. Concepts itself is an index to the repertory, offering a selection of available chapters, ranging from First Aid and Pediatrics through the Core Delusions of Dr. Luc. Each Concepts entry contains a group of thematically related rubrics. It’s even possible to create one’s own rubric groups – based on any theme - in the ‘Personal’ chapter of concepts. practical, results-oriented exercise for repertory exploration.RadarOpus - Helping Homeopaths Heal
A true practitioner of the healing art:“… clearly perceives what is to be cured in diseases…what is curative in medicines… and knows how to adapt what is curative in medicines to what he has discovered to be morbid in the patient …” The Organon of Medicine
You’re committed. As a homeopathic practitioner, you’ve dedicated yourself to cultivating the art and science of homeopathy. This means lifelong learning...
With today’s abundance of information - old, new and constantly expanding - you need help keeping it organized, understanding it, and most importantly, putting it to good use in your practice.
Homeopathic information is growing exponentially; innovations in philosophy and methodology now coexist with a rich body of knowledge and experience. Our understanding is constantly evolving, and as a practitioner, you’re an active participant in the process!
With RadarOpus we’ve created the indispensable tool to help you manage, assimilate, and apply homeopathy’s incessantly growing body of information to your primary task: helping your patients to heal!
Homeopathic Information is expanding – now your Homeopathic Software can expand as well!
Managing Information
RadarOpus is designed to help you manage the information that is essential to every homeopathic practice.
Seek & Find
The RadarOpus Single Intuitive Interface means that all information is resides in one convenient location – your RadarOpus desktop!
It’s easy to locate a familiar rubric by performing a standard, repertory-only search…but if your task is a more complex, like locating an elusive, yet highly characteristic bit of “patient language”, you’ll appreciate the way RadarOpus is able to pull search results not only from the repertory, but also from materia medica, graphics, even case notes or the internet should you choose…
** But my current software searches & repertorizes in the materia medica…Yes, but we’ve enriched the ‘mix’ of searchable information, and it’s been brought together under one umbrella.With radaropus there’s nothing to export, import, copy, or paste; no switching back & forth from one program to another. Simply type a word or phrase, click, and your radaropus program returns a list of results from your preferred list of sources!
RadarOpus is redefining the boundaries between repertory and materia medica, making it easy to locate symptoms, unique phrases, even overarching themes…. in the widest possible variety of sources.
Your Essentials
RadarOpus is truly ‘individualized’, offering the widest possible range of homeopathic tools and information, readily customized to meet your needs and preferences. To get you started, we’ve created a range of packages and standard options.
Adding More
RadarOpus allows you to add your own notes to your library, as well as individual books and special collections.
A well-rounded materia medica library is always a sound investment, but we understand that each practitioner is bound to have a few favorites that would normally be out of reach – available only in a larger 'package’. RadarOpus offers the flexibility of adding individual titles to your collection at any time.
Seminar notes become manageable when you add them directly to your RadarOpus program, where they’re easily included in your extended searches, and annotated with links to relevant rubrics and materia medica references.
Keeping it Fresh
Staying up-to-date is a task that’s ideally suited to your computer, and RadarOpus makes it simple. You control the amount and timetable for adding new information to your homeopathic software. ‘Set it and forget it’ means just that.
Available repertory & materia medica updates – new remedies, a newly-indexed historical journal, or a proving – are checked to make sure they meet your pre-set criteria, and if so, they’re automatically added to your program; if not, you won’t be bothered by annoying update reminders!
** I’m not interested in all that new information, and automating things makes me really, really nervous…We hear you loud and clear. The key phrase is ‘you’re in charge!’We’ve all heard it at one time or another, “Sorry, you’ll have to upgrade.” You may be facing such a situation right now. Thankfully, making the switch to RadarOpus means that you can have the latest technology while sticking with the homeopathic information that can be tailored to meet your standards of reliability.
Deepen Your Understanding
In case analysis, there’s a place where it all comes together: our evaluation of symptoms, our creative analysis, our research… Understanding and interpretation deepen, and we have an assessment and a plan.
Which information sources do you depend on for understanding? Original provings & summaries, cured cases, toxicology, natural history and source information, classical texts, journals old and new…. With RadarOpus, our aim is to give you the tools you need in order to appraise and apply all approaches to homeopathy – to your work.
- Imagine having access to a pool of high-quality cured cases! They’re available when you subscribe to CLIFICOL.
- Ever wished you could re-create your own thought process, or recall what led you to a brilliant (or not) prescription? Your case notes are centralized in RadarOpus, where a convenient search can bring it all back in just seconds.
Practical Results
When it comes to case analysis, RadarOpus is the most versatile and flexible program available. Open as many analysis windows (clipboards) as you like - that's right - there's no limit on the number of different analysis windows you can open at once. Doing a follow-up visit? Open a series of windows from previous sessions to get an overview of your patient's progress. Want to look at your case from a variety of angles? Use standard analysis settings or perhaps apply a 'family' filter to one or more of the available windows and make a side-by-side comparison - the possibilities are endless!
Day-to-Day
Running a busy homeopathic practice means keeping track of information - lots of it. RadarOpus is on your side - helping you keep track of all the 'bits & pieces' of each patient's case. Basic patient management tools are built into the program’s Single Intuitive Interface, which means saving case notes and analysis charts is all handled with a couple of mouse clicks.

in one place!

RadarOpus and Synthesis offer students of homeopathy an ideal resource for studying the repertory.Most repertory studies begin with Kent, learning the organization of chapters, structure of rubrics, the locations of symptoms, etc. All too often both students and practitioners, find the structure difficult to master, and ultimately resort to an A-Z repertory.RadarOpus offers a unique feature, “Repertory Views”, which makes it possible to change not only the amount of information in the repertory, but the way it is arranged as well.
- Does your homework assignment require Kent’s Repertory? No problem – simply select the ‘Original Kent’ display option and you’re set!
- Studying Boenninghausen? Again, a single click rearranges your repertory to include only Boenninghausen’s rubrics.
- ‘Full Synthesis’ view displays all of the latest repertory additions – with their sources. If you prefer less information, select a more restricted view from among the available options.
… and did we mention that RadarOpus allows you to open more than one repertory window at a time? Two or more repertories, different views, multiple languages – all available for side-by-side comparison.New, Old and Forgotten
Archibel has always been known for dedication to classical scholarship, as demonstrated by thoroughly researched and documented information.Today, thanks to our collaboration with homeopathy’s best and brightest thinkers, Synthesis and RadarOpus are informed not only by the foundational classical works; they have fused the research of all contemporary homeopaths, all manner of provings and clinical information from the full spectrum of homeopathic thought.Each repertory addition is documented and ‘tagged’– allowing the repertory to be reorganized in accordance with the standards and philosophy of the individual practitioner – from the strictly classical to the most liberal. As new information becomes available – from provings, cured cases, or even newly indexed classics – it can be incorporated (or not) according to these same standards and philosophy.Materia medica libraries range from the simplest 7-volume collection to a complete library, representing a rich heritage of classic texts, new and old journals and therapeutic references, mixed with modern materia medica, provings, theoretical and reference materials.And with RadarOpus, the ability to add individual books or collections to your library means you have more flexibility than ever before to update and personalize your library – as your budget allows!Especially noteworthy, we’ve added several invaluable “old” journals – unavailable until now – including.- Proceedings of the International Hahnemannian Association
