The aim of Theranostics is to provide a forum for the exchange of clinical and scientific information for the diagnostic and therapeutic molecular and nano medicine community and allied professions involved in the efforts of integrating molecular imaging and molecular therapy. Theranostics is a multidisciplinary journal that publishes innovative and original research articles reflecting fields of in vitro diagnostics and prognostics, in vivo molecular imaging, molecular therapeutics, image-guided therapy, biosensor, nanobiosensor and bioelectronics, system biology and translational medicine, point-of-care and personalized medicine. A broad spectrum of biomedical research that can be applied to future theranostic applications is encouraged. In addition to primary research, Theranostics also publishes reviews, news, and commentary to understand and bridge the gap among the laboratory, clinic, and biotechnology industries. Papers in the journal are rigorously peer-reviewed. Theranostics is indexed/abstracted/covered by all major indices and databases: Science Citation Index (SCI) Expanded Web of Science Biological Abstracts Biosis Previews MEDLINE PubMed PubMed Central CAS/Chemical Abstracts EMBASE Google Scholar Instructions to Authors Special note: Authors should supply a graphical abstract (a feature figure) when submitting the manuscript for publication. The abstract should summarize the contents of the paper in a concise, pictorial form designed to capture the attention of a wide readership and for compilation of databases. The graphical abstract is posted online only. Carefully drawn figures that serve to illustrate the theme of the paper are desired. Authors may also provide appropriate text, not exceeding 30 words. The content of the graphical abstract will be typeset and should be kept within an area of 5 cm by 17 cm (189 x 642 pixels), images should have a minimum resolution of 300 dpi and line art should be between 1000dpi and 1200dpi. Authors will be given instructions to upload the graphical abstract to the journal site when the manuscript is scheduled for publication. Please note that the final manuscript for publication (if accepted) must be provided in Microsoft Word, and we cannot accept Latex and Tex files. If your manuscript is prepared with Latex or Tex (and not Microsoft Word), please sumbit to other journals. Review/Decisions Manuscripts that are judged to be of insufficient quality or unlikely to be competitive enough for publication will be returned to the authors at the initial stage. The remaining manuscripts go through a review process, and possible decisions are: accept as is, minor revision, major revision, or reject. Authors should submit back their revisions within 1 month in the case of minor revision, or 3 months in the case of major revision. To submit a revision please sign in here and use the submit button at the right side of page. Manuscripts with significant results are typically reviewed and published at the highest priority. Submission Please embed figures and tables in the manuscript to become one single file for submission. Details for submission can be found in the submission page. Publication Charges Published articles of Theranostics are open access and full texts appear in PubMed Central. This effectively removes the barriers for timely distribution of the articles and ensures that they can be read by as many as possible. The amount of fee charged by the journal is lower than many other PubMed Central journals (comparing to the fees charged by BioMedCentral and PLOS). Payment can be made by credit card, bank transfer, money order or check. Instruction for payment is sent during publication process and is also available in the manuscript login page as soon as manuscript is accepted. Publication fee is required to cover the cost of publication. Fee waiver is not available.
