Style guide and help

Tag: help

The style guide at radiopaedia.org is a document that aims to set out guidelines to help authors write content in a uniform way such that there is cohesiveness across the whole site.

Articles

Articles are the meat of Radiopaedia.org.  This is where we link together our collective knowledge to form meaningful 

In an attempt to be even more open about what articles we rate and which we think need more work, we have implemented a star rating system for our articles.

Cases

Good cases are vital for Radiopaedia.org.  All articles need good images from great cases.  But, cases are so much more than just a simple image to demonstrate a single point.  They allow you to summarise patient presentation, symptomatology, image findings and then link that back to articles that are relevant.
