h-Index has been proposed as a useful bibliometric measure for quantifying research productivity. In this current study, we analyzed h-indices of editorial board members of Radiology journals and tested the hypothesis that editorial board members of Radiology journals with higher impact factors (IF) have higher h-indices. ⋯ Our data indicate that board members of Radiology journals with higher IF have greater h-indices compared to lower IF journals.

This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic performance of using a reformatted single-in-plane image reformation of the rib cage for the detection of rib fractures in computed tomography (CT) examinations, employing different levels of radiological experience. ⋯ The diagnostic performance for the detection of rib fractures, using CT images that have been reformatted to a single-in-plane image, improves for readers from different educational levels when the evaluation time is restricted to 30 seconds or less.
