RADIOLOGY UNIVERSITY Author Agreement

For the purposes of the following Agreement:

·         The primary author or other person completing this form agrees that all persons' names appearing in this article's authorship have seen and agree to this form and may hereafter be referred to by the term "Contributor" collectively.

·         "Journal" shall refer to RADIOLOGY UNIVERSITY.

·         The terms "work," "article," and "submission" are used interchangeably and refer to the document submitted through this site for review.

The following statements are true:

·         Journal is electronically published and freely available via the Internet as an open-access journal.

·         Contributor has submitted an article to the journal.

Therefore,

·         Contributor will submit an article in compliance with the author's guidelines:

·         Contributor will retain the copyright of work subject to the following restrictions:

o    Journal may reproduce, publish, republish, and distribute the article submitted through any medium (present or future) the Journal finds necessary in order to promote said Journal.

o    Journal is allowed to post the work in a multimedia hypertext environment that is freely available to the public as an open-access journal.

o    Journal is allowed to post the DICOM cases submitted as quiz cases or as a part of the teaching course. Contributors may or may not be asked to contribute to such a course.

·         The Contributor warrants to the Journal that the work is original material, except for such material from copyrighted sources as is reproduced with the written permission of the copyright holder sufficient to permit the Journal to use the work as set forth herein, and is in no way a violation of or an infringement upon, any copyright belonging to any third party; that the materials contained in the submission are accurate; and that the submission contains no defamatory or otherwise illegal materials. The Contributor shall indemnify and hold the Journal harmless from any claims that the submission infringes a third party's copyright or contains inaccurate, libelous, or unlawful material.

·         Contributor agrees that they have also followed the ethical guidelines and taken consent.

·         Contributor further agrees that the human subject’s policy (if relevant) was followed closely.

·         Journal reserves the right to copy, edit, or change the format of any submitted work to fit its needs.

·         Journal is for radiology education and research to colleagues, other clinicians and patients; however, it does not provide management advice to individual patients. Therefore, neither RADIOLOGY UNIVERSITY nor the authors of the article are responsible for any direct or indirect harm caused to patients if they follow the advice mentioned in the article of the journal.

RADIOLOGY UNIVERSITY authors do not need to obtain permission: 1) to use their original figures or tables in their future works; 2) to make copies of their papers for their own personal use, including classroom use, or for the personal use of colleagues, provided those copies are not for sale nor distributed systematically; 3) to include their papers as part of their own future works (e.g., theses); or, 4) to use all or part of their articles in printed compilations of their own works. However, in all cases of reuse, the full journal reference must be cited.

DICOM data provided in the journal is meant only for use by Journal or Radiology Unversity courses. They can not be used without prior permission from Radiology Univeristy for any academic or commercial purposes, e.g., in conferences or courses or in paid viva sessions. They can not be used to train artificial intelligence models without prior written permission from the radiology university. If the radiology university has not replied to the email regarding permission for usage, then it should be regarded as permission denied.

Finally, this document is the complete agreement between the Journal and Contributor. It voids any other agreement (past, present, or future), whether that agreement is oral, written, or implied; this is the sole understanding between the Journal and Contributor.
