Abstract

Radiology has been the official journal of the Radiological Society of North America since 1923. In 2014 it had an impact factor of 6.867, the highest for general radiology journals. The journal attracts a world-wide readership of approximately 54,000. Contributions from Japanese radiologists, radiographers, and radiological scientists are greatly welcomed. This article explains how we process the manuscripts submitted to the journal and describes the factors that can contribute to the decision to accept or reject.
