→‎Sections: May not be the most significant initially
:*'''"Normal" findings in chronic conditions''', which are generally not used in the diagnosis of that condition. This includes expected findings in congenital conditions whose diagnosis is generally made clinically or genetically close to birth, thereby allowing radiologists to determine if a finding is part of their known condition or because of a new disease or disorder.
*'''Basic screening''', which should generally be done regardless of the issue raised by the referral
*'''Diseases and conditions''' or '''Objectives''', which should cover the most common ones. :
:*For any entry that does not yet have its own article, preferably only list it if you intend to write that article yourself in a near future.
:*Initially, conditions may be included in the article if being short, such as [[CT of the thorax#Lymphadenopathy]]. They should, however, preferably be expanded to own articles that are linked from the Modality+Location article as described in the [[#Inter-article structure]] section above.
:*[[#Templates|Templates (see below)]] can be used to include conditions both in the overall location article as well as the Modality+Location articles, such as {{tl|Diseases and conditions associated with CT and MRI of the head}} being included in [[Head]] and [[MRI of the head]] (while [[CT of the head]] has developed a more detailed list).
:As the list becomes larger, with over 5-10 entries, only the most common or otherwise significant ones should remain in the article, and the rest be moved to anatomic sub-regions or be linked from a separate category page.
*'''Techniques''', with subtypes of the topic at hand, such as [[CT of the thorax]] having a section on CT [[angiography]] of the region.
*'''Report''', containing at least a report on a basic screening of the investigation at hand. It is recommended to also insert the [[#Templates|template]] {{tl|Reporting}} below the header in order to link to general notes about reporting. It does ''not'' need to mention "additional findings upon image evaluation" or similar.
