Through its commitment to quality improvement, IJ Radiology seeks to promote collaboration and progress in radiological sciences both nationally and internationally.
About the Owner
The IJ Radiology was established in 2002, initiated by the esteemed late Professor Dr. Karim Vesal, in response to the lack of a specialized English-language radiology journal in the country. The publication license was obtained from the Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance in the same year, and the journal officially commenced its activities at Advanced Diagnostic and interventional Radiology Research Center(ADIR) of Tehran University of medical scienses.
The first issue of the journal was published in 2003, and after two issues, it successfully received the research scientific rank from the Publications Commission of the Ministry of Health, Treatment, and Medical Education.
The main objective of launching this journal was to create a scientific nucleus in Iran for disseminating valuable research in the field of radiology to the entire world. Under the management of Dr. ghanaati and the editorship of Dr. Firouznia, the journal was indexed in the ISI database in 2009 and quickly established its position both regionally and globally. Currently, with an impact factor of 0.2, the journal accepts articles from most countries around the world.
