Interesting Images

Dear Colleagues,

It is with great pleasure that I invite you to submit articles for the “Interesting images” Special Collection. Since we introduced Interesting Images as an article type in Diagnostics, it has served as a valuable resource for the imaging community. Many have relayed that they use these image-based case reports when encountering challenging cases or images of diseases rarely seen. Further, pitfalls are covered by this type of article and may be helpful both for experienced and less experienced image readers in making a correct evaluation.

The interesting Images together serve as a live imaging atlas covering PET, CT, MRI, and other imaging modalities. Therefore, the more cases we publish, the more likely it is that image interpreters with a difficult case can be supported by previously published cases. Although focus until now has largely been on clinical cases, it should be noted that nonclinical cases are also welcome, e.g., from preclinical in vivo imaging, including optical imaging as well as histology images from pathology.

To further promote submissions of Interesting Images, we are now launching this Special Collection. We hope you will submit your next interesting case.

Prof. Dr. Andreas Kjaer
Collection Editor
