The Innovative Journal of Medical Imaging (IJMI), published by SPJ Publication, operates under a comprehensive full open access model designed to support unrestricted and equitable dissemination of high-quality scientific knowledge. All published articles are immediately and permanently accessible online without subscription fees or institutional barriers. This model removes traditional paywall constraints, encouraging broader engagement with scientific literature and contributing to global advancement of medical imaging research and education.
Upon publication, every article becomes freely available worldwide through the journal's online platform. Barrier-free access enhances authors' visibility and impact by increasing citations, academic collaboration, and professional recognition. This benefits clinicians, radiologists, researchers, educators, technologists, and students from diverse geographic and socioeconomic backgrounds, supporting inclusive knowledge sharing and continuous learning within the global imaging community.
IJMI upholds strong author rights, allowing contributors to retain full copyright of their manuscripts. Authors grant permission to publish under Creative Commons frameworks, enabling users to read, download, distribute, and reproduce material for non-commercial purposes with proper attribution to authors and journal. This empowers authors with greater control over their scholarly output while ensuring ethical use of published content.
The full open access policy reflects IJMI's commitment to transparency, academic integrity, and scientific progress in medical imaging. Unrestricted access facilitates global exchange of ideas, encourages innovation in imaging technologies, and fosters collaborative scientific environments. This aligns with international open science initiatives, enabling rapid dissemination of discoveries and continuous evolution of medical knowledge.
To sustain high-quality open access publishing, IJMI implements Article Processing Charges (APCs) that cover essential services including rigorous peer review, plagiarism screening, expert editorial assessment, copy-editing, typesetting, indexing, digital archiving, and permanent online hosting. These fees ensure professional execution of publishing operations while maintaining all content freely accessible to the global community.
IJMI commits to preserving the scholarly record through secure, long-term digital archiving systems. All articles are stored in stable repositories guaranteeing accessibility for future generations of researchers and learners. Digital preservation ensures continuity of scientific documentation, protects published work integrity, and enables ongoing reference, citation, and educational use, safeguarding medical imaging research for sustained scientific growth.
