2 ASRT Journals ASRT scholarly journals, Radiologic Technology and Radiation Therapist, keep readers inmed about new developments in the profession. Journal content includes peer-reviewed articles, continuing education articles (Directed Readings) and technical columns. Peer-reviewed articles contain original research conducted by radiologic science professionals. Directed Readings are educational articles written by professional science writers or experienced radiologic technologists. Columns, or department articles, update readers on various aspects of the profession, and share and explore new ideas, applications and perspectives. Radiologic science professionals, experts in related fields or officials from radiologic science organizations write these articles. The focus of each journal is distinct. Radiologic Technology is published six times per year. The journal focuses on all aspects of medical imaging and radiologic technology practice, including education and radiology administration. Articles cover specific diagnostic imaging techniques, anatomy, disease processes, patient positioning, equipment protocols, radiation safety, radiation protection and basic patient care. Radiation Therapist is published two times per year. The journal covers all aspects of radiation therapy practice, including education and radiation oncology management. Articles cover specific radiation therapy techniques, anatomy, disease processes, patient positioning, equipment protocols, radiation safety, radiation protection and basic patient care. Articles and Columns ASRT has specific lines regarding the types of articles published in its journals. Peer-reviewed Articles Scholarly writing makes use of citations and builds on the body of academic literature serving the profession. These articles report original research results, describe technical innovations or review the literature on a specific topic. Such work should reflect fresh research or thought and be unpublished. Only original work is accepted and should not be under consideration by other publishers at the time of submission. To be accepted publication, these articles are evaluated by at least two members of the Editorial Review Board of the journal. See the Submitting a Peer-reviewed Article page more inmation. Nonpeer-reviewed Articles ASRT journals also feature columns or department sections in which writing with a more casual style is appropriate. Consult the Columns page of the Guide Authors a description of column topics and a more comprehensive list of requirements. A nonpeer-reviewed article may be submitted electronically to the journal s editor at asrt.msubmit.net American Society of Radiologic Technologists. All rights reserved.
3 The Peer-reviewed Manuscript This page describes the required sections of peer-reviewed manuscripts and specifies the required mat the various parts of your submission. Peer-reviewed articles published in the ASRT journals fall into two major categories: quantitative research manuscripts and technical or literature review manuscripts. An author conducting quantitative research poses a question or hypothesis and then collects and analyzes data to answer the question or prove the hypothesis. Technical manuscripts describe a new practice technique, including historical background and implications practice. Literature review manuscripts analyze previously published material on a specific topic, summarizing the research and drawing original or unique conclusions. Consult Peer-reviewed Article Samples examples of quantitative research and technical and literature review articles that have been published in Radiologic Technology and Radiation Therapist. Definitions Section Abstract Introduction Literature review Methods or Procedure Methodology Results Discussion or Comment Purpose To explain the purpose of the article and provide a brief summary of the findings. Limit abstracts to 150 to 200 words.

8 Manuscript Outlines An outline creates a plan your article. Although readers will not see your outline, it can help organize your article. Your outline should consist of the major and minor topics included in your manuscript. If you are inexperienced with scholarly publication, the ideas on this sheet may help you put together an outline. When creating and ordering your manuscript, it is important not only to recognize categories and related topics among your notes and research findings, but also to present them in a logical order, with one major idea leading to the next. The following recommendations can help you organize your notes into logical sections and present them in a way that makes sense to the reader. Creating Topic Categories To translate your notes and research findings into an outline, follow these steps: 1. Identify the major topics from your notes and research. 2. Turn these topics into headings. 3. Organize all of your inmation under these headings. 4. Consider ordering the inmation within topics in this way: idea, fact, detail, example. Ordering Topics in Your Outline After you have classified your inmation into a few major topic headings, the next step is to order the major headings logically. You will need to determine the connections between and among topics, and organize them accordingly. A few easy ways to do this include: Ordering Technique Description/Content Example Chronological Order inmation or events according to the passage of time The historical progression of radiologic equipment, a use of an imaging technique or the radiologic technologist s role in a particular area Cause and Effect Definition and Application Identify and explain a cause or initial event Describe the effects Explain how the effects are linked to the cause Define and explain a new innovation Describe and explain its current or future uses An explanation of a new development in radiologic technology and its effects on both radiologic technologists and patients A description of a new radiation therapy technology, explanation of various applications the technique and prediction of ways that the technology might be used in the future American Society of Radiologic Technologists.

9 References ASRT journals follow American Medical Association (AMA) style reference citations. References must be cited in two places: within the text and at the end of the article. The following lines briefly review reference citation. Consult the AMA Manual of Style complete inmation. Choosing Appropriate References In your manuscript, you must cite research that supports your points or findings; you also must correctly acknowledge the ideas and work of other. When choosing appropriate references and support materials, keep in mind the following general lines: References should be timely or historically significant, and sufficiently support the manuscript. Documentation of a personal communication, such as a telephone conversation or , should appear parenthetically within the text, not on the reference page. Internet references should be chosen carefully and used sparingly; they should represent reliable research sources, such as government Web sites (e.g., National Institutes of Health), universities or online scientific and medical journals (e.g., Radiology). Avoid using marketing or trade publications. Citing References Within the Text References within the text should be listed in the order of citation, using superscript numerals. Separate numbers with a comma, but no space; a sequence of three or more consecutive references can be shortened to the range of numbers. Example: Development of a comprehensive marketing plan has been recommended as one solution. 1,2 (See Fig. 1.) Others, however, recommend conducting a needs assessment first. 3-8 Dr. Meyers has permed significant research in the area. 4,6,9-12 He found that an adequate needs assessment can prevent improper allocation of resources (HR Meyers, Ph.D., personal communication, April 5, 2001). Citing References at the End of the Text References should be listed in the order of citation in a separate section at the end of the paper. Follow these general lines: Do not use commas to separate the author s name and initials. Do not put a period after the author s first and middle initials. Capitalize the first letter of the first word and all proper nouns in an article title; use lowercase all other words in article titles. For articles or books with more than six, list the first three names, followed by et al. Italicize the names of journals and books. For Internet sources, include the URL and the date the page was accessed. See the Reference Style page helpful examples. Citing Figures and Tables in the Text Figures and tables should be cited where they are discussed in the text. Number figures and tables sequentially American Society of Radiologic Technologists. All rights reserved.
10 Reference Style The examples on this page show how to reference citations both within the text and at the end of the text, according to AMA style. Reference Citations Within the Text Each reference must be cited within the text in the order of citation, using superscript numerals. For complete inmation, consult the AMA Manual of Style. Example: Development of a comprehensive marketing plan has been recommended as one solution. 1,2 (See Fig. 1.) Others, however, recommend conducting a needs assessment first. 3-8 Dr. Meyers has permed significant research in the area. 4,6,9-12 He found that an adequate needs assessment can prevent improper allocation of resources (HR Meyers, Ph.D., personal communication, April 5, 2001). Reference Citations at the End of the Text References should be listed in the order of citation in a separate section at the end of the paper. National Library of Medicine journal abbreviations can be found at Use the Journals Database to find journal titles. Examples: Journal Citation title of article 1. Lynch HT, de la Chapelle A. Genomic medicine: hereditary colorectal cancer.
