Editorial Policy

This policy explains how teaching cases are selected, prepared and reviewed on RadLearn.

1. Sourcing

Cases are drawn from openly licensed teaching collections. The source is recorded on every case page. Where a licence requires attribution, it is preserved.

2. Language

All content is written in British English and uses standard radiology terminology (BI-RADS descriptors, modality names, and conventional reporting terms). Spellings are normalised to British usage throughout.

3. Review

Each published case is checked by the editorial team for: (a) internal consistency between the history, findings and final diagnosis; (b) a differential list that does not include the confirmed diagnosis itself; and (c) a specific discriminating feature for every alternative diagnosis.

4. Corrections

If you spot an error, please contact us. Corrections are applied to the case page and the “last updated” date is refreshed.

5. Assistance disclosure

Translation and drafting are assisted by automated tools, but every case is reviewed by a human editor before publication. Nothing on this site is a substitute for professional clinical judgement — see the medical disclaimer.
