NeuroImage Stroke

NeuroImage: Stroke, a companion title to the highly respected NeuroImage, is a gold open-access journal dedicated exclusively to communicating significant imaging-based advances in the fields of stroke and related cerebrovascular research.
The journal welcomes research using any imaging modality* involving patients or animal models, that presents new clinical or research opportunities at any stage, from prevention through hyperacute and acute phases, as well as post-stroke recovery and rehabilitation.
NeuroImage: Stroke will be of particular interest to clinicians specializing in stroke and acute stroke management, preclinical and clinical stroke researchers, rehabilitation professionals, neuropsychologists, data scientists and imaging physicists and engineers.
Topics for consideration include, but are not limited to, research that has a clear focus on stroke and…

• Uses imaging to gain insights into disease mechanisms and pathophysiology.

• Demonstrates the benefit of imaging for prevention, diagnosis, treatment, prognosis, and patient monitoring.

• Assesses the quantitative capabilities of stroke imaging modalities.

• Involves secondary analyses of imaging data collected during clinical trials aimed at exploratory research, validation, and assessing measurement accuracy, reproducibility, and reliability in both research and clinical settings.

• Focuses on technological developments such as the optimization of, or proposals for, new hardware, software, acquisition protocols, AI-based clinical decision support systems, as well as the scientific challenges associated with these developments.

We invite submissions of original research articles, review papers, clinical trials and clinical trial protocols, innovation reports, commentaries and opinion papers, letters to the editor, and editorials, as long as the primary focus is on imaging of strokes or related cerebrovascular conditions.

* e.g., all forms of magnetic resonance, computed tomography, positron emission tomography, electrophysiological, optical, ultrasound, brain stimulation, as well as combined methods, or new modalities.
