The Website is intended for educational and informational purposes only.

3. Educational and medical disclaimer

The content on the Website is provided for education and general information only.

It does not constitute medical advice, diagnostic advice or a recommendation regarding the investigation, diagnosis or treatment of any individual patient.

Website content is not a substitute for:

  • appropriate professional education and training;
  • independent clinical judgement;
  • review of the complete clinical information relating to a patient;
  • local policies and procedures;
  • professional guidelines;
  • specialist or senior advice where appropriate; or

Healthcare professionals remain responsible for their own clinical decisions and should independently verify information before relying on it in clinical practice.

No doctor-patient relationship, clinician-patient relationship or other professional relationship is created between you and Quendia Ltd, the authors of the Website, or any contributor by your use of the Website.

Cases, images and examples shown on the Website must not be relied upon to diagnose or treat a specific patient.

4. Medical images and case material

Medical images and case material displayed on the Website are provided for educational purposes.

Where clinical images originate from healthcare institutions, they are used with appropriate permission or authorisation.

We take reasonable steps to remove patient-identifying information from clinical material before publication and do not intentionally publish identifiable patient information.

Some images, illustrations or other educational material may be artificially generated, digitally created, modified or adapted for educational purposes and may not represent a real patient.

You must not attempt to identify or re-identify any patient or individual from any image, case history, clinical information or other material displayed on the Website.

You must also not combine Website material with other information for the purpose of attempting to determine the identity of an individual.

We aim to provide useful and accurate educational material, but medicine and radiology are continuously developing fields.

We do not guarantee that Website content will always be:

  • complete;
  • error-free;
  • appropriate for every clinical setting;
  • consistent with every local or national guideline; or
  • fully up to date.

Guidelines, classifications, terminology, examination requirements, technology and accepted clinical practice may change over time and may vary between institutions, professional bodies and countries.

We may correct, update, replace or remove content at any time.

6. Examinations and professional education

Website content may be useful for professional education, revision and examination preparation.

However, use of the Website does not guarantee success in any examination, assessment, training programme or professional qualification.

Users preparing for professional examinations should refer to the current curriculum, regulations and guidance published by the relevant examination or professional body.

References to examinations, professional organisations, healthcare institutions, guidelines or other third parties do not imply affiliation, sponsorship or endorsement unless we expressly state otherwise.
