Our The Radiopaediastyle guide is a set of guidelines to help authorscontributors write content adhering to the highest possible academic standards as well as ensuring that contributions are in a uniform wayconsistent style. This has become increasingly important as the number of contributors has grown. Take a look through the guide and get involved at Radiopaedia.org.
Guiding principles
Evidence-based medicine
Any recommendations for patient care should be based on current science, evidence, and clinical reasoning while giving a fair and balanced view of diagnostic and therapeutic options.
Any new and/or evolving topics for which there is little or absent published evidence base should be clearly identified as such.
Avoid advocating for, or promoting, practices that are not, or not yet, adequately based on current science, evidence, and clinical reasoning or that have been shown to have risks that outweigh their benefits.
Copyright
We have a zero-tolerance policy towards plagiarism (copying other people's work) and take a hard line on it, for more detail about this please see: plagiarism
Patient confidentiality
Please ensure that no patient information that could be used to identify an individual is present in any of your contributions. That includes not only their name but also the date of birth, date of exam, address etc. See Patient confidentiality for more information.
Style
In an attempt to unify the look and feel of Radiopaedia.org, we have a style guide. This helps the articles and cases written by a number of authors to maintain consistency. Take a look at these pages to get started.
Articles and cases
Articles and cases are the two main components of content at Radiopaedia.org and work together to become more than the sum of their parts as they are linked together.
Articles
Articles are the essence of Radiopaedia.org. This is where we link together our collective knowledge to form a meaningful collaboration.
Editing an article is simple, and is quickly explained in the following short video.

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.
Creating a case is simple, and is quickly explained in the following short video.
