The editorial board of the Swiss Journal of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine is composed of 23 distinguished members, each recognized for their significant scientific contributions in the fields of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine. Collectively, these experts have authored and co-authored more than 2000 peer-reviewed articles across a broad range of subspecialties, including diagnostic radiology, neuroradiology, pediatric radiology, interventional radiology, and nuclear medicine and complex tumor surgery, transplant surgery, and advanced minimally invasive procedures such as robot-assisted surgery.
This remarkable publication record reflects not only the breadth and depth of their academic experience but also their enduring commitment to advancing imaging sciences. Many of our editors hold professorships or senior consultant positions at leading university hospitals and research institutions across Switzerland and beyond. Several have played key roles in shaping clinical guidelines, developing innovative imaging techniques, or leading major scientific societies in their respective specialties.
The strength of the Swiss Journal of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine lies in the quality and dedication of its editorial leadership. Our board brings together a unique blend of clinical expertise, academic rigor, and editorial integrity. Each manuscript submitted to the journal benefits from this collective experience—from the initial review process to the final decision—ensuring that only work of high scientific and ethical standards is accepted for publication.
By entrusting the journal’s academic direction to such a capable and highly respected team, we aim to establish and continuously grow a platform that not only reflects the current state of radiological science in Switzerland but also contributes meaningfully to the global discourse. The editorial board’s vision is aligned with fostering interdisciplinary exchange, encouraging young researchers, and upholding transparent and fair peer review.
In a rapidly evolving field, where imaging technology and clinical applications are advancing at an unprecedented pace, editorial leadership matters. The members of our board do not merely oversee publication—they shape its trajectory. Their insight and scholarly judgment guide the journal’s content, tone, and future development.
With this editorial foundation, the Swiss Journal of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine is well-positioned to serve as a trusted scientific forum—committed to excellence, relevance, and innovation in imaging-based medicine.
