Magnetic Resonance in Medicine (MRM) is a monthly peer-reviewed medical journal covering research on all aspects of the development and use of nuclear magnetic resonance and electron paramagnetic resonance techniques for medical applications.

History

The journal was established in 1984 – Vol. 1, no. 1 (April 1984) – and is published by Wiley on behalf of the International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine. Since 2019, the editor-in-chief has been Peter Jezzard, a professor at Oxford.[4]

Recent

In 2020, the journal introduced Data Availability Statements and began featuring reproducible research under the "MRM Highlights" initiative. The percentage of papers including shared code rose from approximately 10% in 2019 to nearly 33% by 2021, prompting an editorial in 2025 to announce further enhancements in open practices.[5]

Starting in 2022, the journal began offering authors the option to choose between single-blind and double-blind peer review, reflecting evolving standards in editorial transparency.[6]

In 2022–2023, the journal partnered with the Reproducible Research Study Group of the International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine to trial an open "code review" process, allowing authors to submit their research code for independent, non-judgmental checks. Based on the success of this initiative, Magnetic Resonance in Medicine announced it would adopt the policy permanently in 2023.[7][5]

Overview / scope

Published on behalf of the International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, the journal specializes in original investigations into nuclear and electron paramagnetic resonance techniques for medical applications.
