The impact factor, as published in the annual Journal Citation Reports (JCR), is a calculation determined based on the number of citations accumulated in 2018 for manuscripts published in 2016 and 2017.
Gland Surgery is an international, open access, and peer-reviewed journal indexed by PubMed/PubMed Central and Science Citation Indexed Expanded (SCIE), providing cutting-edge findings and recent scientific advances on diagnosis, prevention, treatment and prognosis of gland diseases, such as breast, thyroid, adrenal, pancreas surgery from a range of fields as biomarkers, imaging, pathology, biology and interventional radiology etc.
