The last quarter century has witnessed major advancements that have 
brought biomedical imaging to a paramount status in life sciences. As a 
prominent example, the National Institute for Biomedical Imaging and 
Bioengineering (NIBIB) was established in 2000 as the newest institute 
in the National Institutes of Health (NIH), USA. Generally speaking, the 
scope of biomedical imaging covers data acquisition, image 
reconstruction, and image analysis, involving theories, methods, systems 
and applications. While tomographic and post-processing techniques 
become increasingly sophisticated, traditional and emerging modalities 
play more and more critical roles in anatomical, functional, cellular 
and molecular imaging.

The overall goal of the International Journal of Biomedical Imaging 
(IJBI) is to promote research and development of biomedical imaging by 
publishing high-quality papers, reviews and tutorials in this rapidly 
growing interdisciplinary field.

IJBI is operated by a board of editors consisting of internationally 
known active researchers, made available online for free and also in 
print, utilizes a web-based review process for speedy turnaround up to 
high standards. In addition to regular issues, special issues will be 
organized by the invited guest editors. Proposals for special issues 
should be submitted to the Editor-in-Chief.

Subject areas include, but are not limited to:

     * Digital radiography, tomosynthesis
     * X-ray computed tomography (CT)
     * Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
     * Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)
     * Positron Emission Tomography (PET)
     * Ultrasound imaging
     * Diffuse optical tomography, coherence, fluorescence, 
bioluminescence tomography, impedance tomography
     * Magnetic, optical spectroscopy, optical biopsy
