Writing a scientific manuscript can be a very intimidating process for new writers. However, writing a scientific research article can be broken down into discrete steps to make the process more digestible. Radiology manuscripts have common conventions that differ from research in technical and other medical fields. The practical steps summarized within describe what to do before you start writing, successful writing strategies, and common writing styles. Templates for producing an abstract, introduction, methods, results, and discussion are outlined, along with tips to collect references and produce high quality figures. All writers can benefit from an outside writing perspective, and the practical steps described should ease the transition from a blank page to a finished manuscript.
对于新手作者来说，撰写科学论文可能是一个令人生畏的过程。然而，撰写科学研究文章可以分解为离散的步骤，使过程更易于理解。放射学手稿有一些不同于技术和其他医学领域的研究的常见惯例。本文总结了一些实用步骤，描述了在开始写作之前要做什么、成功的写作策略以及常见的写作风格。概述了制作摘要、引言、方法、结果和讨论的模板，以及收集参考文献和制作高质量图片的技巧。任何作者都可以从外部写作视角中受益，并且本文中描述的实用步骤应该可以缓解从空白页到完成手稿的过渡过程。
