How to format your references using the Radiography citation style

This is a short guide how to format citations and the bibliography in a manuscript for Radiography (RADI). For a complete guide how to prepare your manuscript refer to the journal's instructions to authors.

Using reference management software

Typically you don't format your citations and bibliography by hand. The easiest way is to use a reference manager:

Paperpile	The citation style is built in and you can choose it in Settings > Citation Style or Paperpile > Citation Style in Google Docs.
EndNote	Find the style here: output styles overview
Mendeley, Zotero, Papers, and others	The style is either built in or you can download a CSL file that is supported by most references management programs.
BibTeX	BibTeX syles are usually part of a LaTeX template. Check the instructions to authors if the publisher offers a LaTeX template for this journal.

Journal articles

Those examples are references to articles in scholarly journals and how they are supposed to appear in your bibliography.

Not all journals organize their published articles in volumes and issues, so these fields are optional. Some electronic journals do not provide a page range, but instead list an article identifier. In a case like this it's safe to use the article identifier instead of the page range.

A journal article with 1 author

Good MF. Immunology. Pasteur approach to a malaria vaccine may take the lead. Science 2013;341(6152):1352–3.

A journal article with 2 authors

Knohl A., Veldkamp E. Global change: indirect feedbacks to rising CO2. Nature 2011;475(7355):177–8.

A journal article with 3 authors

Mersch DP., Crespi A., Keller L. Tracking individuals shows spatial fidelity is a key regulator of ant social organization. Science 2013;340(6136):1090–3.

A journal article with 7 or more authors

Kominis IK., Kornack TW., Allred JC., Romalis MV. A subfemtotesla multichannel atomic magnetometer. Nature 2003;422(6932):596–9.

Blog post

Reports

This example shows the general structure used for government reports, technical reports, and scientific reports. If you can't locate the report number then it might be better to cite the report as a book. For reports it is usually not individual people that are credited as authors, but a governmental department or agency like "U. S. Food and Drug Administration" or "National Cancer Institute".

Government report

Government Accountability Office. Proprietary Schools: Poorer Student Outcomes at Schools That Rely More on Federal Student Aid, Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office; 1997.

Theses and dissertations

Theses including Ph.D. dissertations, Master's theses or Bachelor theses follow the basic format outlined below.

Doctoral dissertation

Abuzainab N. Energy and security aspects of wireless networks: Performance and tradeoffs. Doctoral dissertation, University of Maryland, College Park, College Park, MD, 2013.

News paper articles

Unlike scholarly journals, news papers do not usually have a volume and issue number. Instead, the full date and page number is required for a correct reference.

New York Times article

Casey N. Rebel Group in Colombia Enters Talks. New York Times 2016:A10.

In-text citations

References should be cited in the text by sequential numbers in superscript:

This sentence cites one reference ¹.
This sentence cites two references ^1,2.
This sentence cites four references ^1–4.
