LinkedIn was a social media pioneer website initially focused on improving how professionals conduct business on the Internet. Since its acquisition by Microsoft, it has grown into one of the world's most influential social media platforms and become a major hub for career networking and job searching. In recent years, the ambitions of the site have also evolved. Unlike its competitors, LinkedIn is not intended as a digital gathering place for friends. But the site appears to be expanding its range of offerings, with the opportunity now emerging to use the platform for educational purposes. To date, evidence suggests that the medical community, and the radiology community specifically, engages with LinkedIn on a limited basis. This may partially be explained by the lack of awareness among practitioners as to how to use the site for pedagogy. Here we review the data on the use of LinkedIn by radiologists and the advantages and disadvantages of three modes through which LinkedIn can be used for education.
领英是一家社交媒体先驱网站，最初专注于改善专业人士在互联网上开展业务的方式。自被微软收购以来，它已发展成为全球最具影响力的社交媒体平台之一，并成为职业网络和求职的主要中心。近年来，该网站的雄心也在不断发展。与竞争对手不同，LinkedIn 并不是为了成为朋友的数字聚集地。但该网站似乎正在扩大其产品范围，现在有机会将该平台用于教育目的。迄今为止，有证据表明，医学界，特别是放射科医生，在有限的基础上与 LinkedIn 互动。这部分可能是由于从业者不知道如何将该网站用于教学。在这里，我们回顾了放射科医生使用 LinkedIn 的数据，以及 LinkedIn 用于教育的三种模式的优缺点。
