You should cite an UpToDate topic review as a chapter in a book titled UpToDate, edited by Ted Post, and published by UpToDate in Waltham, MA. Because our material is updated each year, you must always use the current year in your citation. There are no page numbers to cite. Below is an example of the correct format:

Marion DW. Pacing the diaphragm: Patient selection, evaluation, implantation, and complications. In: UpToDate, Post TW (Ed), UpToDate, Waltham, MA. (Accessed on January 04, 2018)

Once the results of your search appear, click on the button or text labeled Images.

Now, click the button that says Tools.

Select Creative Commons licenses from the Usage Rights drop-down menu.

If any royalty-free images are available from your search, you should see them appear in the results.
