Excerpt

Generally speaking, it is not easy to publish scientific papers in reputational journals with high impact factors due to low acceptance rates. Therefore, good science as well as good writing cannot be overemphasized. Nuclear medicine and molecular imaging is naturally research-oriented specialty of medicine. Its new techniques, methods, or radiopharmaceutical agents should be timely published in the major imaging and/or clinical journals to disseminate valuable and useful information. Rejection of scientific papers by the editors of good journals is related to poor science and writing as well as irrelevant topic, insufficient original work, methodology without rigor, poor analysis of results, and perhaps low acceptance rate. With my vast personal experiences as editor of the Current Medical Imaging as well as associate editor of the Journals of Nuclear Medicine and Radiology for many years, I would like to express my way to think about the nuclear medicine and molecular imaging scientific papers and help my trainees as well as junior faculties for their successful publication. …
