====COMMUNICATING THROUGH CLINICAL IMAGES====
Progress in neurosurgery has paralleled advances in lesion localization and imaging technologies. WORLD NEUROSURGERY is
launching a new section to convey the nuances of our specialty through imagery: Communicating Through Clinical Images. This is
also a conduit by which neurosurgeons worldwide may communicate exciting discovery and experience through a common language
(i.e., captivating clinical images).We thus encourage the submission of images or videos from cases that portray interesting, engaging,and somewhat rare depiction of neurosurgical disease.

Submission criteria for Communicating Through Clinical Images:

 Text: One electronic document, double spaced

 Title: Should be clear and concise

 Authors: No more than 3 authors, with name, highest academic
degree, affiliations, address, and e-mail for each

 Figure legend: Should contain no more than 150 words and
include relevant patient history/physical examination, clinical
course and response to treatment, and, if applicable, condition
at follow-up
In the words of Dr. Sutherland, “It is hoped that this section will
become an excellent medium by which all neurosurgeons could
express their observations and discoveries through a pictorial
medium.”
Case reports are finding their way to publication with everdecreasing
frequency. This new outlet facilitates the use of
both economy of words (i.e., brevity) and clinically striking imagery
to convey what previously may have been lost by the
wayside via the standard case report route. Hence Communicating
Through Clinical Imagery provides a new and unique outlet
for transmitting clinically relevant information in a compacted and
concise manner.
