Editorial Policy
How RadDx sources and maintains educational content
RadDx content is written for patient education first. The goal is to explain radiology language clearly, cautiously, and in plain English without drifting into diagnosis or treatment advice.
RadDx is an independent educational tool and is not affiliated with hospitals, imaging centers, radiology groups, or patient portals.
Content sourcing standards
RadDx favors established radiology references, public medical education sources, and guideline-based summaries when they help explain a finding. Each source is chosen for reliability, readability, and fit with an educational page.
Accuracy review process
Once the source base is set, the review process keeps the language steady. Findings pages include editorial metadata, named review context, a last reviewed date, and linked references. Structured templates help keep similar pages aligned while still letting each section do a different job.
Update frequency
That review does not stay frozen. Content is revisited when new pages are added, terminology coverage expands, or a review cycle refreshes the source context. The visible review date helps readers see when a page was last checked.
Limits of the content
Clear explanations still have firm limits. RadDx provides educational explanations only. It does not provide diagnosis, treatment, emergency triage, or clinician supervision. Radiology results still need licensed clinical review, especially when symptoms are urgent, worsening, or unclear.
