The International Journal of Cardiovascular Imaging
Submission guidelines
Instructions for Authors
Types of Papers
The International Journal of Cardiovascular Imaging publishes peer-reviewed, original contributions that will positively impact cardiovascular imaging.
Original Research
Most International Journal of Cardiovascular Imaging articles are Original Research, based on the fact that the new information provided in the Results and analyzed in the Discussion makes the most impactful contribution to cardiovascular imaging. The Conclusions should be supported by the data, and very often the work is based on the development of a hypothesis, testing of that hypothesis, and then making conclusions based on the acquired data.
Original Research submissions should be no longer than 4,000 words, 8 total images; and 5 Tables. Longer manuscripts could be approved for submission by the Senior Editorial Staff.
Organization of a Manuscript Submitted as Original Research:
Introduction:
Describe the background of the work to establish its significance, and then include the objective of the study. If the work is hypothesis driven, clearly state that hypothesis. If the work is not hypothesis driven, explain the rationale and why the work was conducted.
Materials and Methods:
The methods described should correspond to demonstrating, validating, or testing the hypothesis in the Introduction. Include statements regarding regulatory boards for human and animal studies as appropriate. Include details regarding data collection and data analyses. Statistical approaches should be explained in detail.
Results:
The data acquired should follow the organization and flow established in the Materials and Methods. Tables are other graphical means to present data are encouraged. When this format is used, please do not duplicate the same data in the text.
Discussion:
Concisely summarize the implications of the data in the context of the Background material. Explain expected and unexpected results in the context of the hypotheses and research plan, when applicable. Place the data in the context of other studies in the field; a comprehensive review of all prior studies is likely not needed, but citation of those studies and analyses of the current data with the perspective of prior research is highly encouraged. The Limitations of the study should be clearly identified in the Discussion.
References:
References should be numbered consecutively and use the standard format for the journal as noted below.
Review Article
The International Journal of Cardiovascular Imaging encourages thoughtful reviews of specific topics of high importance to cardiovascular imaging. Review articles should not contain new information, new data, or be used to add new data to an existing field. The manuscript should remain neutral regarding antidotal data or the opinions of the authors. In general, manuscripts that are concise will receive a higher priority score than those that are not. While the journal does not fix individual structured sections as with an original report so that authors can best organize the material, manuscripts should be less than 3,500 words with no more than 8 total images and 5 Tables. Longer manuscripts could be approved for submission by the Senior Editorial Staff.
Case-in-Point
The International Journal of Cardiovascular Imaging is the official journal of the North American Society of Cardiac Imaging (NASCI), as well as the European Society of Cardiac Radiology and the Asian Society of Cardiovascular Imaging. As part of an educational program, some cases featured on the NASCI website (www.nasci.org) are selected for International Journal of Cardiovascular Imaging publication.
Submission of cases for the NASCI online teaching file is done through the www.nasci.org web site. Cases will undergo peer-review, and those considered for possible publication in the International Journal of Cardiovascular Imaging will require submission of a single image (may be multi-paneled, aspect ratio of 1:1, and resolution of at least 300 dpi) that highlights the clinical message. This will be supplemented with a 150-200 word description (with up to 3 references if necessary). There can be no more than three authors (plus affiliation).
Preference for publication in the International Journal of Cardiovascular Imaging will be given to cases showing striking, illustrative, and instructive clinical examples of cardiovascular imaging.
Images in Cardiovascular Applications
This pictorial format focuses on a specific clinical case or image that presents a challenge to cardiovascular imaging. Submissions will generally include a comprehensively-captioned single image (may be multi-paneled, aspect ratio of 1:1, and resolution of at least 300 dpi) followed by a brief Discussion. The format of published papers will be a maximum of one journal page, and thus authors should plan the limited text accordingly. Submissions should not include an abstract and references are limited to two. List of authors provided should be brief without extensive affiliation information (e.g. use “Harvard University”, not “Harvard University, Department of Astronomy, 60 Garden Street, Cambridge, MA 02138”).
Letter to the Editor
Manuscripts of 500 words or less should provide objective criticism of articles published in the journal. Letters can also focus on topics that are important in cardiovascular imaging. Submissions should not include an abstract and references are limited to two. List of authors provided should be brief without extensive affiliation information (e.g. use “Harvard University”, not “Harvard University, Department of Astronomy, 60 Garden Street, Cambridge, MA 02138”).
Manuscript Submission
Submission of a manuscript implies: that the work described has not been published before; that it is not under consideration for publication anywhere else; that its publication has been approved by all co-authors, if any, as well as by the responsible authorities – tacitly or explicitly – at the institute where the work has been carried out. The publisher will not be held legally responsible should there be any claims for compensation.
Permissions
Authors wishing to include figures, tables, or text passages that have already been published elsewhere are required to obtain permission from the copyright owner(s) for both the print and online format and to include evidence that such permission has been granted when submitting their papers. Any material received without such evidence will be assumed to originate from the authors.
