{"entity":{"id":"clinical-nuclear-medicine","kind":"journal","name":"Clinical Nuclear Medicine","aka":["CNM"],"tldr":"A monthly US medical journal for doctors who use radioactive scans and treatments in everyday patient care.","summary":"Clinical Nuclear Medicine has been published since its first issue in June 1976, making it almost exactly contemporaneous with the first human FDG-PET images acquired that same year. It is a monthly journal from Lippincott Williams & Wilkins (Wolters Kluwer) aimed squarely at clinical practice: diagnostic interpretation, new tracers and imaging techniques, case-based teaching material, and correlation of nuclear medicine findings with other imaging modalities.\n\nIt sits alongside more basic-science-oriented titles such as the Journal of Nuclear Medicine and EJNMMI as one of the main clinical-practice venues in the field, and is frequently cited for case reports and imaging pearls involving PSMA PET, DOTATATE PET and other radiopharmaceutical-based studies that do not fit the format of a full clinical trial report.\n\nAccording to Wolters Kluwer's own journal page, its 2024 Journal Citation Reports impact factor was 9.6.","asOf":"2026-09-22","links":[{"label":"Clinical Nuclear Medicine (LWW journal home)","url":"https://journals.lww.com/nuclearmed/pages/default.aspx"},{"label":"Wolters Kluwer/Ovid: Clinical Nuclear Medicine journal page","url":"https://www.wolterskluwer.com/en/solutions/ovid/clinical-nuclear-medicine-235"},{"label":"PubMed: Historic images in nuclear medicine — the first issue of Clinical Nuclear Medicine (1976)","url":"https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24978339/"}],"tags":["journal","nuclear medicine","clinical"],"related":[],"indications":[],"sections":[],"technologies":[],"targets":[],"drugs":[],"companies":[],"institutions":[],"pathways":[],"terms":[],"trials":[],"people":[],"bottlenecks":[],"keyPapers":[],"journals":[],"dependsOn":[],"notes":[],"publisher":"Lippincott Williams & Wilkins (Wolters Kluwer)","url":"https://journals.lww.com/nuclearmed/pages/default.aspx","scope":"Clinical nuclear medicine practice: diagnostic imaging interpretation, new radiopharmaceuticals and tracers, case reports and teaching cases.","access":"subscription","founded":1976,"impactFactor":{"value":9.6,"year":2024,"source":"Wolters Kluwer/Ovid journal page for Clinical Nuclear Medicine"},"matchNames":["Clinical Nuclear Medicine","Clin Nucl Med"]},"route":"/journals/clinical-nuclear-medicine/","neighbours":{}}
