One of the preeminent fundamental requirements for advancement in medical and scholarly vocations is the authorship of scientific papers.Collaborative authorship has been a trademark highlight of the present day medical science and there has been a predictable pattern towards expanded collaboration in all the branches of sciences. A percentage of the writings are evaluated by the authors before conducting the present study.By observing the authorship patterns to be measurably essentially connected with publication in high ranking journals. Consideration of professors, research scholars, and scientists as authors, were all emphatically connected with publication in high ranking journals.SudhierPillai,K G (2007) have describedThe study revealed that team research is predominant in journal articles while solo research is the trend in the case of books Elango and Rajendran (2012)briefed information that multi authored contributions are dominated in the field of marine sciences. Neena Kapoor et al (2014) has described the study demonstrates that the average number of authors per publication dramatically increased from 1980 to 2013 in major radiology journals. The author has made an attempt to study the authorship pattern, collaborative researchand country of the corresponding author on oncology literature published during the period.
