Scope

The 2015 IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium and Medical Imaging Conference together with the Symposium on Room-Temperature Semiconductor X-Ray and Gamma-Ray Detectors will be held at the Town & Country Hotel in San Diego, California, from October 31st to November 7th. This conference is the premier meeting on the use of instrumentation in the Nuclear and Medical fields. The meeting has a very long history of providing an exciting venue for scientists to present their latest advances, exchange ideas, renew existing collaboration and form new ones. The NSS portion of the conference is an ideal forum for scientists and engineers in the field of Nuclear Science, radiation instrumentation, software engineering and data acquisition. The MIC is one of the most informative venues on the state-of-the art use of physics, engineering, and mathematics in Nuclear Medicine and related imaging modalities, such as CT and increasingly so MRI, through the development of hybrid devices. The RTSD is an ideal companion to both the NSS and MIC segments of the conference and impacts both interest areas. There is synergy and overlap between the three main areas of the conference. Several joint sessions are planned to further foster discussions between scientists that work on similar problems, but possibly in different areas. Such an interdisciplinary flavor offers an excellent milieu to students and postdoctoral fellows; a presentation at this meeting is indeed almost a ‘right of passage’ for a student in his or her research career, as they have an opportunity to interact and learns from world experts in the field. Every effort will be made to provide as much student support as possible to make this unique scientific and educational experience more easily accessible. As in the past years, the educational content of the conference will be enriched by special focus workshops and educational seminars.

SJR

The SJR is a size-independent prestige indicator that ranks journals by their 'average prestige per article'. It is based on the idea that 'all citations are not created equal'. SJR is a measure of scientific influence of journals that accounts for both the number of citations received by a journal and the importance or prestige of the journals where such citations come from It measures the scientific influence of the average article in a journal, it expresses how central to the global scientific discussion an average article of the journal is.

Citations per document

This indicator counts the number of citations received by documents from a journal and divides them by the total number of documents published in that journal. The chart shows the evolution of the average number of times documents published in a journal in the past two, three and four years have been cited in the current year. The two years line is equivalent to journal impact factor ™ (Thomson Reuters) metric.

Total Cites

Self-Cites

Evolution of the total number of citations and journal's self-citations received by a journal's published documents during the three previous years.
Journal Self-citation is defined as the number of citation from a journal citing article to articles published by the same journal.

External Cites per Doc

Cites per Doc

Evolution of the number of total citation per document and external citation per document (i.e. journal self-citations removed) received by a journal's published documents during the three previous years. External citations are calculated by subtracting the number of self-citations from the total number of citations received by the journal’s documents.

% International Collaboration

International Collaboration accounts for the articles that have been produced by researchers from several countries. The chart shows the ratio of a journal's documents signed by researchers from more than one country; that is including more than one country address.

Citable documents

Non-citable documents

Not every article in a journal is considered primary research and therefore "citable", this chart shows the ratio of a journal's articles including substantial research (research articles, conference papers and reviews) in three year windows vs. those documents other than research articles, reviews and conference papers.
