· Consult the site to see how previous Cases of the Week appear (look under “Archives”)
· Select one of Einstein’s cases – do not use any other institutions’ cases as this is an infringement of their copyright
· It must be a case in which you can make the diagnosis on one image
· It can be any modality, any organ system
· Take a digital picture of the case
· Use these settings: VGA, black and white if your camera has it. The file size should be at least 50Kb. Larger files will be reduced in size by me so that they load faster when a page is accessed on the web. Smaller files may appear pixilated.
· Save the image as a JPEG or JPG image
· In Microsoft Word (any version), type a one page, or less, summary that includes the findings on your image, the etiology, incidence, pathology and overall findings of whatever disease it is and the prognosis and treatment. Do not use anyone else’s material verbatim-change the wording so as not to infringe on copyright
· If you want, you can include a second image which could appear on the answer page
· Place the files (one or two images and one Word file) on a floppy disc we can provide
· Clearly label the disk with your name and the diagnosis
· You will be credited by name both on the opening splash page and the jump page on which the “correct answer” and your blurb appear; Cases of the Week are archived so that your contribution and its attribution will always remain on the site
