Tomography

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 發表涉及成像技術進步的基礎（技術和臨床前）和臨床科學文章。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，以及光學模式（即生物發光、光聲、內窺鏡、光纖成像和光學計算機斷層掃描）在基礎科學、工程、臨床前和臨床醫學領域。

斷層掃描還歡迎涉及在模式內和跨模式內探索和改進對比機制和圖像衍生指標的研究，以開發用于基于圖像的反饋和干預的新型成像探針。成像在生物學和醫學中的應用為非侵入性地詢問組織提供了無與倫比的機會，以獲得診斷和響應干預所需的實時動態和定量信息，并跟蹤不斷發展的病理狀況。隨著多模態研究和成像技術本身的復雜性不斷增加，為科學家和臨床醫生提供先進的信息。

斷層掃描提供了一個獨特的出版場所，使研究人員有機會更準確地傳達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相關的多樣化和異質性特征相關的綜合發現。因此，斷層掃描發表同行評審的文章，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/軟件以及化學和分子探針的進步也受到歡迎，因為它們被認為對改善成像對科學和臨床發現的整體影響的長期目標做出了重大貢獻。

Tomography創刊于2015年，由Grapho Publications LLC出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋Medicine - Radiology, Nuclear Medicine and Imaging全領域，此期刊水平偏中等偏靠后，在所屬細分領域中專業影響力一般，過審相對較易，如果您文章質量佳，選擇此期刊，發表機率較高。平均審稿速度 6 Weeks ，影響因子指數2.2，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預警名單，廣大學者值得一試。
