[edit] Title

WikiProject Radiology

[edit] Scope

The clinical aspects of radiology and basic aspects of engineering and biomedical physics required to understand medical imaging techniques.

This WikiProject aims to:

  • increase the quality of the current articles on radiology topics by increasing their medical content while keeping them accessible to individuals with no specialty medical knowledge
  • facilitate the creation of new articles on topics in radiology, so that Wikipedia is a more-or-less comprehensive radiology resource for the public
  • ensure that articles created on radiology topics are thoroughly referenced and include up-to-date links to the most recent literature
  • explain the use of evidence-based medicine in radiology
  • maintain consistency per WP:MOS on radiology articles
  • increase the number of images attached to articles
  • produce radiology-themed featured articles based on the above

[edit] Parentage

This WikiProject is descended from WikiProject Clinical Medicine.
