The Rounds Atlas

Maps that make medicine visual

Use each map three ways. Map view shows everything at once. Journey view walks you through one step at a time, and starts first on small screens. List view is the simple index. Tap any point to open its detail panel.

Red flag first: these maps are education only. If you have emergency symptoms, call 911 instead of using a map.

Map 1

Real or Hype? The Headline Health Map

Trending health questions, plotted by how loud the buzz is against how strong the evidence is. Tap a numbered point, or pick the topic from the list.

Loud, but early Loud and supported Quiet and early Quiet and solid Strength of evidence, early to strong Public buzz, low to high

Numbers match the list view. Placement is the Rounds editorial take, to be debated on the show, not a scientific score.

Map 2

Symptom Map

Start with what you feel. See the likely territory, who leads, and the red flags.

    Map 3

    Brain, Spine, Ear and Balance Map

    A simple schematic of the head and spine. Tap a region to see who treats it and what conditions live there.

    Brain Sinuses Inner ear Spine Nerves

    Schematic only, not an anatomical drawing. Use List or Journey view for a text version of every region.

      Map 4

      Patient Journey Map

      From first symptom to follow up. What really happens at each step, what to ask, and which myth to drop.

        Map 5

        When Is It an Emergency? The Red Flag Map

        Symptoms sorted into three urgency zones. Tap any card for why it sits there, what happens next, and which specialist gets involved.

        Read this first: this map is general education, not a diagnosis. Symptoms do not read maps. When in doubt, go in or call 911.

        Protect Your Brain: The Brain Health Map

        The modifiable risk factors for dementia, grouped so you can act on them. Tap any factor for why it matters, one practical step, and who covers it on the show.

        The research headline: the 2024 Lancet Commission work links addressing these factors to preventing or delaying up to about 45 percent of dementia cases in population studies. That is research at population level, not a promise for any one person.
