“Cites per paper” is a two-year cited-by rate computed from OpenAlex. It is not a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor — we neither compute nor license that metric (how the two differ). Citation rates differ enormously between fields, so compare within a discipline. What the other figures mean: journal quartile, SJR, h-index and article processing charge.

The quartile is the one Scimago prints for each category. Rank is the journal's position by SJR among the journals Scimago lists in that category (#1 is the highest); “—” means we hold no rank consistent with that quartile. The document count is what Scopus indexed that year, which can be lower than a journal's full output. Source: SCImago Journal Rank 2025 edition, from Scopus data (scimagojr.com, CC BY-NC).

Biomedical Physics & Engineering Express is Q3 in 7 of its 8 Scimago subject categories (2025 edition; best category Biomaterials: Q3, #104 of 145), with SJR 0.385 (Scimago) and an h-index of 41 (OpenAlex). Listed in Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed.

Frequently asked

Is Biomedical Physics & Engineering Express a predatory journal?

Our screening does not flag Biomedical Physics & Engineering Express. That is not a guarantee of quality — it means the venue is not on Beall's archive (frozen since 2017) and does not match our name-pattern heuristic. It is listed in Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, which is a positive signal.

Is Biomedical Physics & Engineering Express indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?

Per our venue index, Biomedical Physics & Engineering Express appears in: Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.

What is the impact factor of Biomedical Physics & Engineering Express?

Papers in Biomedical Physics & Engineering Express are cited about 1.7 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q3, with an h-index of 41. Those are the open equivalents: the Clarivate Journal Impact Factor is a proprietary metric we neither compute nor license, so we show the two-year citation rate and Scimago quartile instead — they answer the same question of how heavily the journal is cited. A citation rate is a property of a field as much as of a journal.

What Scimago quartile is Biomedical Physics & Engineering Express (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?

In the Scimago Journal Rank 2025 edition, Biomedical Physics & Engineering Express is Q3 in 7 of its 8 subject categories and Q4 in the other 1. By category: Biomaterials: Q3, #104 of 145; Health Informatics: Q3, #107 of 152; Biophysics: Q3, #109 of 159; Bioengineering: Q3, #122 of 165; Radiology, Nuclear Medicine and Imaging: Q3, #211 of 360; Biomedical Engineering: Q3, #217 of 328; Computer Science Applications: Q3, #513 of 875; Physiology: Q4, #160 of 198. Its best category quartile is Q3. Quartiles split the journals in a subject category into four equal groups by SJR, so Q1 is the most-cited quarter and Q4 the least; Biomedical Physics & Engineering Express is cited about 1.7 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 41.

What is the Web of Science (JCR) quartile of Biomedical Physics & Engineering Express?

The Web of Science quartile comes from Clarivate's Journal Citation Reports (JCR), a proprietary product we neither license nor compute — so we cannot state a JCR quartile for Biomedical Physics & Engineering Express. The open equivalent is its best Scimago quartile, Q3 in Biomaterials and 6 other categories, derived from Scopus citation data. Because JCR ranks against Web of Science and Scimago against Scopus, the two can differ, so check Clarivate's site directly if you need the JCR quartile specifically.

Is Biomedical Physics & Engineering Express open access?

Our index records its access status as "hybrid". Where this is derived from publisher-level signals rather than works-level data it is a heuristic, so confirm on the journal's own site — particularly if an article processing charge matters to you.
