Remember, the higher the impact factor is more difficult it is to publish in that journal. Although case reports do not match original research articles, publishing a case report is a good start, especially for radiology residents.
The list is compiled from the article by Simkus P et.al. referenced below. The list does have some discrepancies, which have been corrected; for eg. Radiology and AJR DO NOT accept case reports as stated by the authors in the sheet. A few journals that I feel are not relevant to radiologists have also been removed, for eg. the International Journal of Hyperthermia (I was surprised there exists such a journal!).
I have also provided hyperlinks to these journals’ respective author instruction page. Journal guidelines can change from time to time, so check these links to check the latest guidelines.

If you have any other suggestions, please let us know in the comments, and we shall include them in the list.

While some doctors may have a doctorate in medicine, most radiologist jobs work as employees in the Middle East, Australia, and New Zealand. Their salaries are fixed, though they can receive a range of benefits, depending on their qualifications. A lot of radiologist jobs require a graduate degree. A doctorate degree in medicine can earn a high salary and be a valuable asset to a healthcare practice. While the salary is high, the work can be challenging and stressful.
