Radiology Education Hub
Radiology findings explained in plain English
This hub organizes common radiology findings into plain-English groups so patients can understand what a term usually means, how concerning it may be, and what follow-up doctors may consider. Use it to move between finding guides, symptom pages, and copied-from-report phrase explanations without getting stuck on an orphan page.
It functions as a plain-English directory of common findings across the RadDx library, with grouped sections for chest, abdominal, vascular, neurologic, spine, and other body-region terms.
Currently linking 183 finding guides plus symptom pages that map to common imaging search intent.
Start here based on what you have
A radiology finding term
Go straight to the finding guides if your report already uses a specific term.
Copied report wording
Use phrase pages when you want a plain-English explanation of the exact wording in your report.
A symptom or question
Use symptom pages if you are starting before imaging or trying to understand why a scan was ordered.

Why these pages are different from each other
Finding pages
Explain one radiology finding in plain English, including concern framing and common follow-up.
Variation pages
Cover the narrower versions of a finding when size, location, or severity wording changes the meaning.

Frequently asked questions
What makes this page different from the findings library?
This page is the broadest directory view of common radiology findings. It is meant to help users and search engines move through the library by topic cluster instead of landing on isolated pages.
Can I use this page if I only have a symptom and not a report term?
Yes. Start here or in the symptom library, then follow the grouped links into the findings and report-phrase pages that best match the wording you are seeing.
