The Israel Medical Association Journal (IMAJ) will accept for consideration original manuscripts that have not or will not be submitted or published elsewhere before appearing in IMAJ. This restriction does not apply to abstracts or proceedings of scientific meetings. If any part of the article (e.g., a table) has been published previously, the author must obtain permission from the publisher (or journal) and acknowledge such in full. The Editor also welcomes Book Reviews and Letters.
Peer Review
Articles will be sent for peer review to at least two experts at the editor’s discretion.Authors may recommend reviewers in their field, in Israel or abroad, but the Journal is not obligated to consult the reviewers suggested.
