Abstract
Acta Radiologica celebrates its 100th anniversary in 2021. In this article, the foundation of the journal and its editors are described. During 100 years, the manuscript structure changed from single-author verbose monographs to multi-author collaborations on statistically analyzed research subjects. The authorship changed from purely Nordic authors to a truly international cadre of authors, and the size of the journal increased considerably, in issues per year, printed pages, and published articles per year. The Foundation of Acta Radiologica has been able to give out two prizes, the Xenia Forsselliana and the Acta Radiologica International Scientific Prize for the best manuscripts each year. The increasing submissions of manuscripts is an indication that Acta Radiologica will continue to publish important scientific results for many years to come.
Highlights
The radiology journal Acta Radiologica has been in print for 100 years
The development of imaging modalities is exemplified by the introduction and evolution of magnetic resonance (MR) techniques and ultrasonography
While Odeblad and Lindström had already reported on MR spectroscopy in 1955 (4), the first commercially available system for imaging of the human body was introduced in 1980, described by Smith in the current issue of Acta Radiologica (5)
Summary
The radiology journal Acta Radiologica has been in print for 100 years. The evolution of radiology during these years is exemplified in several articles, from both clinical and technical points of view. While Odeblad and Lindström had already reported on MR spectroscopy in 1955 (4), the first commercially available system for imaging of the human body was introduced in 1980, described by Smith in the current issue of Acta Radiologica (5).
