RadLex: Two Decades of Advancing Radiology Standards
RadLex, the comprehensive radiology lexicon developed by RSNA is celebrating its 20th anniversary.
RadLex has been the gold standard for radiology terminology, transforming how medical imaging is described, reported and analyzed. Today, it has evolved into a robust, structured lexicon encompassing over 75,000 terms, ensuring consistency in image annotation, structured reporting and AI applications.
Over the years, RadLex has played a crucial role in enhancing interoperability across imaging systems. It enables seamless data exchange between institutions and has fueled AI-driven advancements in diagnostic imaging. Its integration with structured reporting has improved the clarity and precision of radiology reports, benefiting clinicians, researchers and patients alike.
As RadLex celebrates this milestone, it represents the power of standardized language in radiology—bridging past innovations with the future of precision medicine and intelligent imaging. Learn more now.
