First published in 1980, the American Journal of Neuroradiology (AJNR) is a peer-reviewed scientific journal which aims to advance our current knowledge of diagnostic and functional imaging of the brain, head&neck, and spine and to promote the highest standards in patient care, research, and education in the field of neuroradiology.
AJNR is the official Journal of the American Society of Neuroradiology, a professional membership society of nearly 6,000 physicians specializing in the field of neuroradiology. Additionally, AJNR is the official journal for other associated societies including: the American Society of Head and Neck Radiology, the American Society of Functional Neuroradiology, the American Society of Pediatric Neuroradiology, and the American Society of Spine Radiology.
Collectively, neuroradiologists, radiologists, nuclear medicine physicians, imaging scientists, and allied professionals, have contributed their scholarly endeavors and discoveries to the AJNR, thereby propelling it to the forefront as a premier platform for disseminating cutting-edge research in neuroradiology.
AJNR publishes monthly for a yearly total of over 300 peer-reviewed Original Research papers, Review Articles, Systematic Reviews and Metaanalyses, State of Practice articles, Radiology-Pathology Correlations, Point/Counterpoint Articles, Clinical Series, and Brief/Technical Notes. With an international editorial board, the AJNR welcomes articles submitted by authors worldwide. The AJNR features a monthly podcast, neuroradiology cases, an Academy of Reviewers and is active on social media, including the very popular AJNR Scantastic.
AJNR is abstracted and/or indexed by PubMed/MEDLINE, BIOSIS Previews, Current Contents (Clinical Medicine and Life Sciences), EMBASE, Google Scholar, HighWire Press, Q-Sensei, RefSeek, Science Citation Index, SCI Expanded, ReadCube, and Semantic Scholar. AJNR is archived in PubMed Central and is an NIH Full Participation Journal. The AJNR’s current time from submission to first decision is 15 days, and the time from acceptance to indexation is 3 days (May 2024).
The current Editor-in-Chief of AJNR is Max Wintermark, MD. The founding Editor-in-Chief was Juan M. Taveras, MD (1980–1989); who was followed by Michael S. Huckman, MD (1990–1997); Robert M. Quencer, MD (1997–2005); Robert I. Grossman, MD (2006–2007); Mauricio Castillo, MD (2007–2015); and Jeffrey Ross, MD (2015-2023).
Toward the end of 2024, AJNR will undergo a significant transformation to a fully electronic format. Through this digital evolution, AJNR will be able to rapidly adjust to the current academic publishing landscape and embrace sustainability goals while moving toward a more dynamic and interactive future in neuroradiologic literature.
