Tags on Radiopaedia allow authors to specify a little more about the article topic and allow articles to be more closely related to similar articles.

Additionally, there are several 'official tags':

  • articles

    • cases: [articles only] 

      • cases needed to illustrate the article

      • this adds the 'cases needed' info box in the right-hand column

      • add the cases tag if the article could benefit from the addition of additional imaging example(s)

      • as a rough guide, removal of the 'cases' tag may be appropriate for articles with:

        • longer articles/important conditions: four or more cases  

        • shorter articles/rarer conditions: two or more cases

    • duplicate: there is another article covering the same topic - these need to be merged and incoming links checked

    • refs: [articles only] references needed to complete the article

    • stub: [articles only] article is a stub, adds the stub transclusion

    • snippet: the article needs to be added to the "Related Radiopaedia articles" snippet

    • external links: the article contains any external links or links to other online resources

  • cases

    • basic

      • a case is most suitable/relevant to medical students, interns and junior residents (e.g. PGY1-2)

      • cases are of important/common conditions with typical appearances

    • intermediate: (e.g. PGY3-4)

    • advanced

      • a case is suitable/relevant to senior radiology registrars/residents (PGY4-5)/fellows and consultants/attendings

      • cases are of rare/uncommon conditions or demonstrate atypical appearances

    • poor quality images: the case includes images that are of poor quality (see: image preparation)

    • stack-it: case contains multiple sequential cross-sectional images which should be in a stack

    • crop: cases that require image cropping

    • discussion: cases that require a case discussion

    • legacy: a case that has educational value but does not meet current case publishing guidelines (see: legacy cases)

    • external links: the article contains any external links or links to other online resources (see: linking)
