radiology-journal

radiology-journal is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from huang-sir1/radiology-skills. It costs 190 tokens per session (1,390 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for choosing journals for a nearly finished medical-imaging or radiomics research paper. Radiomics means extracting measurable patterns from medical scans, while radiogenomics connects scan patterns with genetic information.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build reach, target, and safety journal choices based on the study design, validation, sample size, clinical value, and each journal’s publishing patterns.
Why use it?
It helps authors avoid choosing a journal by reputation alone when the paper may not match its scope or evidence standards.

About the project

radiology-skills is a collection of Codex skills for medical-imaging research, covering radiomics, deep learning, imaging genomics, multimodal studies, statistics, validation, and scientific publishing. It is intended for researchers who design, analyze, write, and submit medical-imaging AI studies. The catalogue entries are its modular research workflows and specialist advisory skills.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

radiology-journal scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 13d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 90 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Journal Selection & Submission Tiering

Use this skill when the paper is essentially written and the question is where to send it. It reads the manuscript's real strengths and weaknesses, grades it on the dimensions imaging venues actually weigh, and returns an honest reach / target / safety ladder — not a wish list ranked by impact factor.

Core stance

  • Fit beats prestige. The best journal is the one whose published pattern matches this paper's design and evidence — not the highest impact factor it might survive.
  • Grade honestly on the right axes. External validation, prospectivity, reader/clinical- utility evidence, calibration, sample size, number of centers, and novelty determine tier far more than topic.
  • Name the biggest weakness first. The limiting factor (single-center, no external validation, small n, retrospective) sets the realistic ceiling; say it plainly.
  • Patterns are durable; current scope is not. Use the publication-pattern heuristics here, but verify each candidate's current aims/scope live (→ radiology-search) before committing.
  • A ladder, not a bet. Give reach/target/safety with the trade-off (turnaround, fit, risk), and what to strengthen to move up a tier.
  • Integrity. Don't promise acceptance, don't inflate an under-validated paper into a top-tier pitch, and don't pick on impact factor alone.

When to use

  • "Where should I submit this?" / "这篇文章适合投哪个期刊?/ 帮我选刊。"
  • "Can my single-center retrospective radiomics paper go to Nature Medicine / Lancet Digital Health?"
  • "Build me a reach/target/safety submission list."
  • "What's the biggest weakness deciding my journal tier, and how do I move up?"

When to open extra files

File Open when
references/venue-patterns.md What each imaging/clinical/AI venue tends to publish and the bar it enforces (verify live)
references/fit-grading.md Grading the paper on the tier-deciding dimensions; turning the grade into reach/target/safety
references/submission-logistics.md Article types, format/word/figure limits, cover letter, suggested reviewers, transfer cascades
references/venue-style-profiles.md The user supplies author-guide PDFs/classic articles, asks for journal "taste," or the target is European Radiology / Nature Partner / npj and style/logistics must match the parsed guide profile

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

radiology-journal is a skill published in the GitHub repository huang-sir1/radiology-skills (1,687 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 190 tokens to every session and 1,390 once invoked, about $0.0010 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
