About the journal
Aims and Scope
Analytical Cellular Pathology focuses on the burgeoning applications of physical techniques to the study of cells, tissues, and organs in disease to elucidate pathogenesis and further translational research, enhanced diagnosis or prognostication as well as new and better therapies. Of particular relevance are studies that explore the ways that aberrant biochemical and molecular pathways are transduced into the physical processes that underlie pathogenesis. The journal aims to be appeal to an audience of pathologists, cell biologists, and biochemists as well as biomedical engineers by focussing on new applications of the rapidly evolving array of technologies. Papers should be based on novel concepts, novel methodologies or the novel use of existing methodologies that contribute to the study of pathologic processes rather than methodological details only. Approaches include tools as biomedical photonics, surface resonance phenomena, and impedance tomography, as well as new approaches for ultra-high resolution magnetic resonance, multispectral, hyperspectral, and vibrational mode analysis, and computational biology models. Hypothesis generating and hypothesis-testing observational studies are also welcome.

Instructions to Authors
SUBMISSION OF MANUSCRIPTS
Authors are requested to submit their manuscript electronically to www.mstracker.com.
Note that the manuscript should be uploaded as one file with tables and figures included. This file can be a Microsoft Word document or an Adobe PDF.
Please contact the Editorial Office if you experience difficulties with the online system.
Authors can make their article open access for €900 (US$1250).
Required files
After the article has been accepted, the following electronic files are required:
a word processor file of the tekst, such as Word or LateX (If using LaTeX, please use the standard article.sty as a style file and also send a pdf version of the LaTeX file)
separate files of all figures (if any); see "Preparation of manuscripts" for the required file formats.
Colour figures
It is possible to have figures printed in colour, provided the cost of their reproduction is paid for by the author. See Preparation of Manuscripts for the required file formats.
Cover Letter
Please include in the cover letter a statement that the manuscript has not been published before and is not being considered for publication in another journal. Authors are encouraged to suggest (max 3) potential reviewers for their manuscript. Please provide names, affiliations and email addresses of the suggested reviewers.
PREPARATION OF MANUSCRIPTS
Organization of the paper and style of presentation
Manuscripts must be written in English. Authors whose native language is not English are recommended to seek the advice of a native English speaker, if possible, before submitting their manuscripts.
You can also visit www.internationalscienceediting.com. International Science Editing offers a language and copyediting service to all scientists who want to publish their manuscript in scientific peer-reviewed periodicals and books.
Manuscripts should be prepared with wide margins and double spacing throughout, including the abstract, footnotes and references. Every page of the manuscript, including the title page, references, tables, etc., should be numbered. However, in the text no reference should be made to page numbers; if necessary, one may refer to sections. Try to avoid the excessive use of italics and bold face.
Manuscripts should be organized in the following order:
- Title page
- Body of text (divided by subheadings)
- Acknowledgements
- References
- Tables
- Figure captions
- Figures
Headings and subheadings should be numbered and typed on a separate line, without indentation.
SI units should be used, i.e., the units based on the meter, kilogram, second, etc. P-values should be reported with only one significant figure (e.g.0.05 in stead of 0.046).
Title page
The title page should provide the following information:
- Title (should be clear, descriptive and not too long)
- Name(s) of author(s); please indicate who is the corresponding author
- Full affiliation(s)
- Present address of author(s), if different from affiliation
- Complete address of corresponding author, including tel. no., fax no. and e-mail address
- abstract; should be structured (background, methods, results, conclusion) descriptive, self-explanatory and no longer than 200 words, it should also be suitable for publication in abstracting services.
- Keywords.
Tables
Number as Table 1, Table 2 etc, and refer to all of them in the text.
Each table should be provided on a separate page of the manuscript. Tables should not be included in the text.
Each table should have a brief and self-explanatory title.
Column headings should be brief, but sufficiently explanatory. Standard abbreviations of units of measurement should be added between parentheses.
Vertical lines should not be used to separate columns. Leave some extra space between the columns instead.
Any explanations essential to the understanding of the table should be given in footnotes at the bottom of the table.
Figures
- Number figures as Fig. 1, Fig. 2, etc and refer to all of them in the text.
- Each figure should be provided on a separate sheet. Figures should not be included in the text.
- Colour figures can be included, provided the cost of their reproduction is paid for by the author. Do not use colour in your figures if they are to be printed in black & white.
- On maps and other figures where a scale is needed, use bar scales rather than numerical ones, i.e. do not use scales of the type 1:10,000. This avoids problems if the figures need to be reduced.
- Each figure should have a self-explanatory caption. The captions to all figures should be typed on a separate sheet of the manuscript.
- Photographs are only acceptable if they have good contrast and intensity.
REFERENCES
For citations in the text, numbers between square brackets should be used. All publications cited in the text should be presented in a list of references following the text of the manuscript.
References should be listed alphabetically in the following style:
[1] B. Newman and E.T. Liu, Perspective on BRCA1, Breast Disease 10 (1998), 3-10.
[2] D.F. Pilkey, Happy conservation laws, in: Neural Stresses, J. Frost, ed., Controlled Press, Georgia, 1995, pp. 332-391.
[3] E. Wilson, Active vibration analysis of thin-walled beams, Ph.D. Dissertation, University of Virginia, 1991.
Footnotes
Footnotes should only be used if absolutely essential. In most cases it is possible to incorporate the information in the text.
If used, they should be numbered in the text, indicated by superscript numbers and kept as short as possible.
Figures
Number figures as Fig. 1, Fig. 2, etc and refer to all of them in the text.
Each figure should be provided on a separate sheet. Figures should not be included in the text.
Colour figures can be included, provided the cost of their reproduction is paid for by the author.
For the file formats of the figures please take the following into account:
Line art should be have a minimum resolution of 600 dpi, save as EPS or TIFF
Grayscales (incl photos) should have a minimum resolution of 300 dpi (no lettering), or 500 dpi (when there is lettering); save as tiff
Do not save figures as JPEG, this format may lose information in the process
Do not use figures taken from the Internet, the resolution will be too low for printing
Do not use colour in your figures if they are to be printed in black & white, as this will reduce the print quality (note that in software often the default is colour, you should change the settings)
For figures that should be printed in colour, please send a CMYK encoded EPS or TIFF
Figures should be designed with the format of the page of the journal in mind. They should be of such a size as to allow a reduction of 50%.
On maps and other figures where a scale is needed, use bar scales rather than numerical ones, i.e., do not use scales of the type 1:10,000. This avoids problems if the figures need to be reduced.
Each figure should have a self-explanatory caption. The captions to all figures should be typed on a separate sheet of the manuscript.
Photographs are only acceptable if they have good contrast and intensity.
