What is RadLex?
A lexicon for uniform indexing and retrieval of radiology information resources
A consistent vocabulary to improve clinical communication
Common data elements to improve clinical imaging research

Identifying Studies of InterestProblems with CPT
Key information is not explicit :
•Thorax and chest are synonyms•MRI chest w/o dye and CT chest w/o dye use different modalities to image the same anatomic region•CT thorax w/o dye and CT thorax w/dye are the same procedure, except for administration of IV contrast•CT angiography, chest is similar to CT
thorax w/dye, except the former is designed to visualize the vascular system•CT thorax w/o&w dye is a combination
of CT thorax w/o dye and CT thorax w/dye
71250 CT thorax w/o dye
71260 CT thorax w/dye
71270 CT thorax w/o&w dye
71275 CT angiography, chest
71550 MRI chest w/o dye
71551 MRI chest w/dye
71552 MRI chest w/o&w/dye
71555 MRI angio chest w or w/o dye

The Plight of the Lexicographer
…the writer of dictionaries [is] doomed only to remove rubbish and clear obstructions from the paths through which Learning and Genius press forward to conquest and glory, without bestowing a smile on the humble drudge that facilitates their progress.
--Samuel Johnson, 1747

Adoption of RadLex
• Teaching file software• RSNA MIRC, RadPix, myPACS.net, ACR Index,
• Decision support software• iVirtuoso YottaLookTM, GoldminerTM, Elsevier RadConsultTM,
• Clinical reporting (planned)• Commissure RadWhereTM, StructuRad ReportNowTM
• Research projects• caBIG, NCIA, Ontology of Biomedical Investigations,
BIRN, FMA• Standards
• DICOM, IHE, SNOMED, HL7• Scientific publications
• 33 abstracts at RSNA last 3 years• Translations
• German, Spanish, Portuguese

RadLex Research Playbook Phase II
• Harmonization with EVS, caDSR, and DICOM
• Other RadLex activities:• Integration of remaining anatomy and
finding terms• Ob/gyn, congenital/develomental, visual
features, normal variants• Linkage with other terminology systems
• ACR Index, SNOMED, CPT, FMA• Formalize licensing terms for RadLex• Move to curation/editorial phase• Likely to become a de facto standard for
imaging terminology

RadLex Playbook Summary
• Likely to become a de facto standard for imaging terminology
• Next step is harmonization for caBIG silver compatibility
