BackgroundThe number of citations that an article has received can be used to evaluate its impact on a particular research area.PurposeThe aim of this study was to identify and characterize the 100 top-cited articles focused on magnetic resonance (MR).Material And MethodsWe determined the 100 top-cited articles on MR via the Scopus database, using the search term. The following information was recorded for each article: year of publication; journal title; impact factor of journal; number of citations; number of annual citations; authorship; department; institution; country; type of article; topic; MR protocol; and disease.ResultsThe number of citations for the 100 top-cited articles was in the range of 898-5679 (median = 1342.5) and the number of annual citations was in the range of 19.7-372.4 (median = 60.9). The 100 top-cited articles were published in 46 journals, led by Magnetic Resonance in Medicine (n = 13). The majority of articles were published in 1990-1999 (n = 53), originated in the United States (n = 69), were original articles (n = 81), and dealt with the clinical application of MR (n = 57). The Department of Radiology, Massachusetts General Hospital (n = 5) was the leading institution. The majority of articles did not use any specific protocol (n = 51) and was not associated with any specific disease (n = 56).ConclusionOur study presents a detailed list and analysis of the 100 top-cited articles on MR, which provides an insight into historical development in this field.
