Radiology Case Bank: Free & Interactive Radiology Cases
In Radiology, we have come a long way over the past century, but despite all the technological advancements, our educational materials have not changed much, and the overwhelming majority of radiology educational resources use still images. We believe a handful of snapshots from a study that might have hundreds or thousands of images cannot adequately capture the entire radiological picture of an entity.
What is Radiology Case Bank?
Radiology Case Bank is an initiative designed to bridge the gap in radiology education by offering free radiology cases in an interactive DICOM format. This platform provides trainees with educational radiology cases that simulate realistic clinical scenarios. Each case is thoughtfully crafted to reflect real-life situations encountered in practice. To further enrich the learning experience, the platform includes sample reports, links to articles from reputable resources for deeper study, and walkthrough videos for select cases. With its collection of educational and interesting cases, Radiology Case Bank ensures a comprehensive and engaging educational experience for all users.

How to Get Started
To access the radiology cases, you will need to register on our website. Registration is straightforward and 100% free. Once registered, you can start exploring the cases curated for your training level. Our intuitive interface ensures you can focus on learning without unnecessary distractions.
Why Radiology Case Bank?
Radiology Case Bank offers an interactive learning experience by presenting cases in a DICOM format that mirrors the functionality of PACS workstations. It provides access to a growing repository of cases, covering a wide array of specialties and pathologies. Our mission is to make radiology education accessible and free for everyone, eliminating financial constraints as a barrier to learning.
Feature-Rich PACS Viewer
The platform includes a feature-rich PACS viewer designed for an intuitive and seamless user experience. Navigating through studies, series, and images is straightforward, with a clear layout to ensure efficiency. Series information, such as the number of images and active series, is presented with clarity using distinct visual indicators. Current window/level settings are readily available to enhance image interpretation. Multi-Planar Reconstruction (MPR) tools allow users to engage in advanced 3D visualization, while built-in measurement tools, window/level presets, and scrolling functionalities provide additional flexibility. Users can customize their workspace with options such as fullscreen mode and shortcuts. Moreover, the platform allows feedback submission and provides sample reports for each case, encouraging a collaborative learning approach.
Diverse Range of Imaging Cases
The Radiology Case Bank features a variety of imaging cases from all modalities, tailored to learners at different levels. Advanced learners and fellows can explore complex and rare entities that challenge their diagnostic skills. For everyday practice, bread-and-butter cases offer exposure to common radiological findings essential for routine interpretation. Whether you are just beginning your journey or are an experienced radiologist, the platform ensures you have access to diverse cases that sharpen diagnostic abilities and expand knowledge.
Other Features
Radiology Case Bank is more than just a collection of cases. It includes advanced search options to help users find cases based on modality, pathology, or complexity level. Interactive quizzes and assessments enable users to track their progress and identify areas for improvement. Additionally, the platform fosters collaborative learning through community discussions and case contributions, creating an engaging and supportive educational environment.
