The 2026 ARRS Radiology Case Review uses focused cases to develop imaging pattern recognition and differential diagnosis. Its nine modules move through abdominal, musculoskeletal, pediatric, breast, cardiothoracic, neuroradiology, nuclear medicine and vascular/interventional imaging, with abdominal topics revisited in the final module. Presentations pair specific imaging problems with faculty-led review, from enhancing liver lesions and musculoskeletal mimics to pediatric normal variants, thoracic disease and acute nuclear medicine findings. The course is intended for radiology residents, fellows and practicing radiologists seeking a structured case-based refresher. The learning outcomes and lecture list below preserve the original module order and faculty assignments.
Learning Outcomes
After completing the 2026 Radiology Case Review, learners should be better able to:
- Develop appropriate differential diagnoses for conditions encountered across nine radiology subspecialties.
- Recognize imaging findings that are highly characteristic of specific diagnoses or groups of diagnoses.
- Integrate imaging and clinical findings to refine broad differential diagnoses into more specific diagnostic considerations.
- Understand management decisions relevant to a variety of commonly encountered clinical scenarios.
- Improve diagnostic confidence through systematic case-based review.
- Strengthen imaging pattern-recognition skills across multiple organ systems and modalities.
