Tips for Authors
All JBI submissions are peer-reviewed and acceptance is not guaranteed.
- Submissions should be made through JBI’s ScholarOne site at https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/jbri.
- You must register in order to submit a manuscript. Please follow the instructions to “create an account” which will require you to include or register for an ORCID ID.
- Please read our Instructions for Authors on the Submit a New Manuscript page before submitting your work.
- Once your article is published, read the Journal of Breast Imaging Author Resource Guide for tips on how to increase your article's impact and exposure.
JBI has a streamlined process designed to avoid unnecessary work when submitting a manuscript. Manuscripts can be submitted in any common document format that can be easily opened and read by others. A single PDF or Word file is usually reliable. At first submission, it is not necessary to apply formatting to match journal style. Instead, simply ask: would I enjoy reading and reviewing a manuscript formatted in this way? You will still need to comply with the requirements and limitations of the selected article type, such as word count or maximum references, and ensure your figures are of sufficient quality to allow effective peer review.
If you have any questions or need assistance during the submission process, please contact James Butler, Managing Editor, at jbreim.editorialoffice@jjeditorial.com or 919-650-1459.
We hope you will consider publishing your work in JBI. Your knowledge and expertise as a breast imaging radiologist will contribute to the advancement of our specialty and be a service to your colleagues.
