Most supernova remnants (SNRs) in our galaxy have been discovered from their radio emission and for the majority this remains the only means of studying them. In this review the impact of new radio observations is discussed.

The increased detail of recent radio maps reveals some common patterns among SNRs, despite their generally diverse appearance. The patterns can give us clues to both the intrinsic properties of the supernova and the influence of the interstellar medium. With a fuller understanding of individual remnants, there are better prospects for meaningful interpretation of statistical studies.
