Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), also known as nuclear magnetic resonance imaging, is the medical imaging technique that provides the best soft tissue contrast among the existing medical imaging modalities, creating detailed images of the inside of the body by means of strong magnetic fields, radio waves, and magnetic field gradients.
In this Special Issue, we intend to collect experiences of leading scientists and invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on magnetic resonance imaging. This Special Issue intends also to be a resource tool for people who are new to the world of MRI.
Potential topics of this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the use of technology, as well as novel image processing algorithms on:
- Head MRI
- Cardiac MRI
- Specialized applications as prostate or knee
- Pharmacokinetic modelling in MRI
- Diffusion MRI
- Tensor imaging
- Functional MRI
- Phase-contrast MRI
- MR angiography
- MR biomarkers
- MRI safety
- MRI physics
- MRI acceleration strategies
- Hardware design and development in MRI
- Educational tools to study basic principles of MR imaging
- Future of MRI
Papers must present novel results, or the advancement of previously published data, and the matter should be dealt with scientific rigor.
Prof. Dr. David Moratal
Guest Editor
Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Journal of Imaging is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1800 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
