Journal Title：Tomography

TomographyTM publishes basic (technical and pre-clinical) and clinical scientific articles which involve the advancement of imaging technologies. Tomography encompasses studies that use single or multiple imaging modalities including for example CT, US, PET, SPECT, MR and hyperpolarization technologies, as well as optical modalities (i.e. bioluminescence, photoacoustic, endomicroscopy, fiber optic imaging and optical computed tomography) in basic sciences, engineering, preclinical and clinical medicine.

Tomography also welcomes studies involving exploration and refinement of contrast mechanisms and image-derived metrics within and across modalities toward the development of novel imaging probes for image-based feedback and intervention. The use of imaging in biology and medicine provides unparalleled opportunities to noninvasively interrogate tissues to obtain real-time dynamic and quantitative information required for diagnosis and response to interventions and to follow evolving pathological conditions. As multi-modal studies and the complexities of imaging technologies themselves are ever increasing to provide advanced information to scientists and clinicians.

Tomography provides a unique publication venue allowing investigators the opportunity to more precisely communicate integrated findings related to the diverse and heterogeneous features associated with underlying anatomical, physiological, functional, metabolic and molecular genetic activities of normal and diseased tissue. Thus Tomography publishes peer-reviewed articles which involve the broad use of imaging of any tissue and disease type including both preclinical and clinical investigations. In addition, hardware/software along with chemical and molecular probe advances are welcome as they are deemed to significantly contribute towards the long-term goal of improving the overall impact of imaging on scientific and clinical discovery.

TomographyTM 發(fā)表涉及成像技術(shù)進(jìn)步的基礎(chǔ)（技術(shù)和臨床前）和臨床科學(xué)文章。斷層掃描涵蓋使用單一或多種成像模式的研究，例如 CT、US、PET、SPECT、MR 和超極化技術(shù)，以及光學(xué)模式（即生物發(fā)光、光聲、內(nèi)窺鏡、光纖成像和光學(xué)計(jì)算機(jī)斷層掃描）在基礎(chǔ)科學(xué)、工程、臨床前和臨床醫(yī)學(xué)領(lǐng)域。

斷層掃描還歡迎涉及在模式內(nèi)和跨模式內(nèi)探索和改進(jìn)對(duì)比機(jī)制和圖像衍生指標(biāo)的研究，以開發(fā)用于基于圖像的反饋和干預(yù)的新型成像探針。成像在生物學(xué)和醫(yī)學(xué)中的應(yīng)用為非侵入性地詢問組織提供了無與倫比的機(jī)會(huì)，以獲得診斷和響應(yīng)干預(yù)所需的實(shí)時(shí)動(dòng)態(tài)和定量信息，并跟蹤不斷發(fā)展的病理狀況。隨著多模態(tài)研究和成像技術(shù)本身的復(fù)雜性不斷增加，為科學(xué)家和臨床醫(yī)生提供先進(jìn)的信息。

斷層掃描提供了一個(gè)獨(dú)特的出版場(chǎng)所，使研究人員有機(jī)會(huì)更準(zhǔn)確地傳達(dá)與正常和患病組織的潛在解剖、生理、功能、代謝和分子遺傳活動(dòng)相關(guān)的多樣化和異質(zhì)性特征相關(guān)的綜合發(fā)現(xiàn)。因此，斷層掃描發(fā)表同行評(píng)審的文章，涉及廣泛使用任何組織和疾病類型的成像，包括臨床前和臨床研究。此外，硬件/軟件以及化學(xué)和分子探針的進(jìn)步也受到歡迎，因?yàn)樗鼈儽徽J(rèn)為對(duì)改善成像對(duì)科學(xué)和臨床發(fā)現(xiàn)的整體影響的長期目標(biāo)做出了重大貢獻(xiàn)。

Tomography創(chuàng)刊于2015年，由Grapho Publications LLC出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋Medicine - Radiology, Nuclear Medicine and Imaging全領(lǐng)域，此期刊水平偏中等偏靠后，在所屬細(xì)分領(lǐng)域中專業(yè)影響力一般，過審相對(duì)較易，如果您文章質(zhì)量佳，選擇此期刊，發(fā)表機(jī)率較高。平均審稿速度 6 Weeks ，影響因子指數(shù)2.2，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預(yù)警名單，廣大學(xué)者值得一試。
