Unlisted cases

Last revised by Jonathan H. Chung on 2 Oct 2024

Unlisted cases are great if you don't want other users to see them but still want to be able to easily share them with others. 

When you have created a case you can set its visibility to unlisted. 

Unlisted cases are:

  • not...

    • visible to other users when browsing Radiopaedia.org

    • indexed by search engines like Google

    • able to be added to articles

    • able to be added to public playlists

    • eligible for selection as case of the day

  • but can... 

All users are able to keep 10 unlisted cases at any one time. Any case you contributed can be made unlisted at any time (even if previously public) and any unlisted case can be made public. 

If you need more than 10 unlisted cases, you can become a Radiopaedia.org supporter; additional unlisted cases are one of the many perks. 

Although the unlisted cases are not visible to the general public, they nonetheless need to be unidentified in accordance with our terms of use.

As a general principle, there are no specific requirements on image quality. In other words, cases that may not be suitable for publication due to poor quality images can nonetheless be kept as unlisted cases provided:

  1. they have no private health information (see above)

  2. they include no copyrighted images or content

  3. are relevant to radiology

  4. do not negatively impact the performance of the site (e.g. file size)

  5. do not negatively impact the reputation of the site (e.g. inappropriate content)

Unlisted cases will be reviewed by our editors for patient information and copyright concerns but will not need to adhere to our style guide. Nonetheless, we suggest that you keep to the usual format. The easiest way to learn about this is to complete the "how to create cases" learning pathway

The editorial board can, at it's sole discretion, request that any case be removed/deleted.

Unlisted cases can be shared using the "share" button from the top right side of the page. Detailed instructions can be found on the unlisted cases page.
