Start from the clinical question.
Each guide collects the calculators, vetting pages and protocols for one situation, and says which tool answers which part of it. They are maps of this site. The thresholds live on the tool pages, with the sources those pages cite.
Pulmonary Nodule Calculators
11Fleischner, Lung-RADS, Brock, Mayo, Herder and volume doubling time — which nodule tool matches an incidental finding versus a screening CT.
Open the guidePulmonary Embolism Scores
9Wells, Geneva, PERC, age-adjusted D-dimer, PESI and CTPA burden — pretest probability, who to scan, and how a positive study is described.
Open the guideLiver Lesion and LI-RADS Tools
11LI-RADS, liver fat and volume, Child-Pugh, ALBI, FIB-4, APRI and BCLC — lesion category, liver function, and treatment stage in one place.
Open the guideBosniak and Renal Mass Tools
4Bosniak classification, RENAL nephrometry and the AAST kidney injury scale — cyst category, solid-mass complexity, and trauma grading.
Open the guideThyroid Nodule TI-RADS Tools
4ACR TI-RADS, EU-TIRADS, ATA and Kwak patterns, plus thyroid volume — which nodule system you are actually applying.
Open the guidePI-RADS and Prostate MRI Tools
6PI-RADS, PSA density, PSMA-RADS and the multiparametric prostate protocol — detection, density, and the scan itself.
Open the guideStroke Imaging Scores
11ASPECTS, pc-ASPECTS, ICH volume and ICH score, NASCET, mTICI and ABCD2 — acute ischaemia, haemorrhage, stenosis and TIA.
Open the guideHead Injury CT Decision Rules
8Canadian CT Head Rule, PECARN, NEXUS, Marshall and Rotterdam — who needs a scan, and how a traumatic brain injury CT is graded.
Open the guideAdnexal Mass Risk Tools
6O-RADS ultrasound, O-RADS MRI, IOTA Simple Rules, ADNEX and RMI — which adnexal risk system matches the scan you have.
Open the guideCoronary Calcium Calculators
5Agatston score, MESA percentile and CAD-RADS — calcium burden, how that burden compares, and how a coronary CTA is reported.
