IJMEI is an independent, peer-reviewed multidisciplinary international journal promoting an understanding of the structural and functional aspects of disease mechanisms and the application of technology towards the treatment and management of such diseases. The journal seeks to promote genuine interdisciplinary collaboration between those interested in the theoretical and clinical aspects of medicine and to foster and encourage the application of computers and mathematics to problems arising from the medical sciences. Features include authoritative review papers, the reporting of original research, and evaluation reports on new and existing techniques and devices. Each issue of IJMEI contains a comprehensive information service which provides news relevant to the world of medical engineering, health informatics, details of new products, book reviews, and the new developments of appropriate technologies.
 Objectives
The objectives of IJMEI are to develop, promote and establish effective channels of communication among academicians, researchers, health professionals, policy makers, government agencies, and research institutions in order to coordinate the research, development, practice and applications of computer technology in the areas related to medical engineering. IJMEI aims to help professionals working in the field, academic educators and policy-makers to contribute, to disseminate knowledge, and to learn from each other's work. The international dimension is emphasized in order to overcome cultural and national barriers and to meet the needs of accelerating technological changes and exchanges in the global economy. IJMEI will provide an outstanding outlet that can shape a significant body of research in the field of medical engineering and informatics where results and new developments may be shared across institutions, governments, researchers and students, and also industry. Readership
IJMEI will be of interest to physicians and surgeons, engineers and scientists, hospital administrators, and all personnel concerned with a practical approach to the application of technology to the field of medicine. In general, the readership will include those working in the fields of computing applied to the medical and life sciences, healthcare services, knowledge discovery, applied research, human genome, biotechnology, biomathematics, engineering and medicine. Contents
IJMEI publishes original papers, review papers, technical reports, case studies, conference reports, management reports, book reviews, notes, commentaries, and news. Special Issues devoted to important topics pertaining medical engineering, clinical research, medical informatics, disease modelling, biomedical technology, human genome, bioengineering, life sciences, medical technology, clinical decision making systems, organ modelling and simulation, data mining, and knowledge engineering will also be published occasionally. Contribution may be by submission or invitation, and suggestions for special issues and publications are welcome.
An ideal paper will combine theory with experiment and papers published will range from theoretical modelling papers, computer based analysis and decision support to experimental clinical papers.
IJMEI also welcomes the submission of rapid communications, offering researchers the opportunity to pose problems and suggest pathways to the medical and informatics community and comment on topical issues and current research.
