A little side project is now available to play with at liquidchapter.com/search.html.

Positions available include: - Breast - Chest - CNS - Gastrointestinal - Head and Neck - Musculoskeletal -… Continue

Well, everyone must be getting bored of the constant "Soon soon.." "Next week" Blah blah blah announcements. I am the boy who cried "Radiopaedia.org 2.0 is here" I am afraid.



Still we are getting there. Was told yesterday that tomorrow was going to be THE day, but I suspect (having become more fluent in code-monkeyian) that that means sometime next week... maybe.



The delays have been worth it.. the new site is looking and behaving well. Just… Continue

Hello everyone...



Have come back from OS to find work on Radiopaedia 2.0 well underway. Should have some bare-bones beta-testing for anyone interested in a couple of weeks. At this stage 'go-live' is scheduled for around end of March, but you know how these things are.



All the content will of course be ported over, so continue to submit!
