Contrast Media & Molecular Imaging, a Journal at the Crossroads of the Scientific and Medical Disciplines of Biomedical Imaging

I am very honoured to take on the role of Chief Editor of Contrast Media & Molecular Imaging (CMMI). CMMI was founded in 2006, originally published by John Wiley & Sons. On 1 January 2017, the journal became fully Open Access, thanks to a publishing partnership between John Wiley & Sons and Hindawi Limited. CMMI was initially intended for a readership of chemists and biochemists developing contrast agents, particularly in MRI, fully justifying the specific reference to “Contrast Media” in its title. Professor Silvio Aime of the University of Torino and Professor Robert N. Muller of the Universite de Mons, ´ both eminent specialists in chemistry applied to molecular MRI, were its first Chief Editors.
