“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.

Scimago Journal Rank 2025
In the Scimago Journal Rank 2025 edition, European Radiology is Q1 in all 2 of its subject categories.
| Subject category | Quartile | Rank in category |
|---|---|---|
| Radiology, Nuclear Medicine and Imaging | Q1 | #23 of 360 |
| Medicine (miscellaneous) | Q1 | #199 of 2,517 |
- Cites per document (2 years, Scopus)
- 5.49
- Documents indexed in 2025 (Scopus)
- 1,147
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).
European Radiology is Q1 in all 2 of its Scimago subject categories (2025 edition; best category Radiology, Nuclear Medicine and Imaging: Q1, #23 of 360), with SJR 1.724 (Scimago) and an h-index of 214 (OpenAlex). Listed in Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed.

Frequently asked
Is European Radiology a predatory journal?
Our screening does not flag European Radiology. 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 European Radiology indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?
Per our venue index, European Radiology 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 European Radiology?
Papers in European Radiology are cited about 5.1 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q1, with an h-index of 214. 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 European Radiology (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?
In the Scimago Journal Rank 2025 edition, European Radiology is Q1 in all 2 of its subject categories. By category: Radiology, Nuclear Medicine and Imaging: Q1, #23 of 360; Medicine (miscellaneous): Q1, #199 of 2,517. 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; European Radiology is cited about 5.1 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 214.
What is the Web of Science (JCR) quartile of European Radiology?
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 European Radiology. The open equivalent is its Scimago quartile, Q1, 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 European Radiology 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.
How long does European Radiology take to publish a paper?
Submission to acceptance for European Radiology takes about 32 days (median) — Estimated from our library (n=49 papers). Treat it as indicative rather than a guarantee: editorial times vary by article type, reviewer availability and season, and a self-reported figure is the journal's own. We do not hold a peer-review acceptance rate for European Radiology.
