Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

The Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging publishes research focused on the application of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques for medical diagnosis and assessment. Recent articles explore MRI's utility in evaluating cerebrovascular reactivity, detecting hepatocellular carcinoma, quantifying cerebral blood flow in sickle cell anemia, assessing lung function recovery after COVID-19, and stratifying risk in dilated cardiomyopathy. The journal also features studies on cardiac MRI for quantifying regurgitation in Ebstein's anomaly, renal ASL-MRI for split renal function, and multiparametric MRI for rectal cancer assessment. Additionally, research investigates MRI for characterizing plaque components, evaluating Duchenne muscular dystrophy phenotypes, and assessing image quality and reproducibility in pulmonary and abdominal MRI.
