Journal of Medical Physics
http://www.jmp.org.in/

Journal of Medical Physics is the official journal of Association of Medical Physicists of India (AMPI). The association has been bringing out a quarterly publication since 1976. Till the end of 1993, it was known as Medical Physics Bulletin, which later became a journal. The main objective of the Journal is to serve as a vehicle of communication to highlight all aspects of the practice of medical physics. The scope of this journal covers all aspects of the application of physics to radiotherapy, radiodiagnosis, nuclear medicine and radiation protection. Papers on radiobiology, particularly as applied to cancer therapy are also within the scope of the journal. In addition to original articles, papers which are of practical importance to other medical physicists e.g., those describing routine practices (performance and quality assurance tests, clinical investigations and follow-ups), radiation accidents and emergencies are also published in the journal. Reviews of other publications (e.g., ICRP / ICRU reports) also find a place in the journal. The areas covered include radiation dosimetry, treatment planning systems, quality assurance, clinical investigations of new modalities and follow-up, radiation protection of workers and public, radiation effects, accidents and emergencies, diagnostic modalities (X-ray diagnostic radiology, CT, MRI, ultrasound etc) and investigations in radio-biology including hypothermia. Journal of Medical Physics publishes articles broadly concerned with the application of experimental or theoretical physics to human health care. Contributions in the categories of editorial, state-of-the-art review article, original research article, letter to the editor, report on conference, book review and abstract of PhD thesis of AMPI member. All papers are peer reviewed. This will be added to Healthcare Resources 2006 Internet MiniGuide.
