Heading vs. RADAR heading

I would be interested to know the difference between a heading and a radar heading if there is one? Often we get the command "fly heading" etc. but then "make your heading a radar heading".

I heard a frustrated controller dealing with a foreign crew a few weeks ago and he was trying to get them to acknowledge that their current heading was in fact a radar heading and it got me thinking about the difference.

Any info. would be helpful!
