The Radiology signs collection on RadioGyan is a high‑yield, searchable library of classic and contemporary imaging signs designed for rapid pattern recognition, streamlined reporting, and exam‑ready learning across modalities and subspecialties. Built for residents, fellows, and attendings, it links hallmark appearances to practical differentials, pitfalls, and clinical relevance to accelerate diagnosis in daily practice. Some of the cases have images while some don’t. I am updating these. Feel free to contribute images. The are arranged in the order they are posted. You can also check out the alphabetical list of radiological signs below.
Overview
Curated, image‑first explainers standardize how signs are recognized and reported across X‑ray, CT, MRI, ultrasound, and nuclear medicine. Each entry is concise yet comprehensive, balancing quick reference utility with the depth expected by medical professionals.
Clinical relevance
Radiologic signs translate visual patterns into shared clinical language, improving communication, triage, and decision‑making across multidisciplinary teams. Consistent use enhances board preparation, viva performance, and structured reporting by anchoring observations to well‑defined entities.
What’s inside
Entries follow a consistent blueprint: definition, imaging appearance, key differentials, common pitfalls, and diagnostic pearls. Coverage spans thoracic, abdominal, MSK, neuroradiology, and GU/GYN systems, emphasizing entities frequently encountered on call and in assessments.
How to use
Integrate sign pages into rotation‑specific study plans and point‑of‑care lookups during case review to narrow differentials and refine report language. Pair with mnemonics and case discussions on RadioGyan to build durable pattern recognition and reinforce clinical application.
