Multiple signs are described in the literature. The recognition of these signs allows
the radiologist to make a specific diagnosis or give a brief differential diagnosis. We
created an atlas of common and not so common signs used in Musculoskeletal Radiology. This
atlas can be reviewed by sign name, pathological diagnosis or locations. These signs are
illustrated with radiographs and diagrams. The references are linked to PubMed, allowing
the user to have immediate access to the abstract, if available. This atlas includes:
anterior drawer sign, blade of grass sign, bone in bone sign, bow tie sign, Boutonniere
deformity, brim sign, cortical ring sign, cotton wool sign, crescent sign, double PCL
sign, elbow fat pad sign, FBI sign, fish vertebra, heel pad sign, Hill-Sachs sign,
inverted Napoleon hat sign, ivory vertebra sign, pneumoarthrogram sign, pronator sign, rim
sign, Rugger Jersey sign, Scotty dog sign, swan neck deformity, tear drop sign,
Terry-Thomas sign, tooth sign, track sign, vacuum phenomenon, and more.
