Updated author guidelines - effective January 20, 2012

After being accepted for being indexed in the prestigious NLM literature database Medline/PubMed, we felt encouraged to further improve the quality and educational value of the articles published in the Journal of Radiology Case Reports by adding new requirements for manuscript submission.

The updates can be reviewed in the JRCR January issue at http://www.radiologycases.com/index.php/radiologycases/article/view/1043/pdf .

It is MANDATORY for ALL manuscripts to use the manuscript template. This guarantees that the author does not miss any required information and also that the manuscript is provided in the correct format. Any submissions which do NOT use the provided manuscript template will be immediately REJECTED - independent of provided contents and quality of the work.
