Instructions for Submitting Videos

Arthroscopy encourages authors to submit a video to be published on the Journal’s web site at www.arthroscopyjournal.org as an illustration incorporated in an article that the author is submitting for publication or as video paired with a journal cover illustration. All videos are subject to peer review. A sound track is highly desirable and is requested.

These formats for video will be accepted

• MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 (.mpg)
• QuickTime (.mov)

Arthroscopy will not edit any video, but a reviewer may suggest that the author make changes.

Requirements

• Each video must start with a slide listing the authors’ conflicts of interest.
• Submit a single video per manuscript, not multi-part videos.
• Maximum length of videos is 4.5 minutes.
• Video file cannot exceed 50 MB. The submission program will timeout if the file size is larger than 50 MB.
• Please ZIP the file and upload the zipped file to hasten the upload time.
• A complete legend for the video must be included in the manuscript.
• Video must be cited in the text of your manuscript just like a figure.
