[Abstract] American and European radiology journals remain the most prestigious imaging journals internationally, with highest impact factors. Though challenging for authors, achieving publication in American and European radiology journals is attain able and rewarding. This article is based on the experience of the authors in writing and publishing articles on radiology of prostate cancer, liver tumors, kidney tumors, lung cancer, esophageal cancer, lymphoma and brain tumors published in 13 American and European journals of radiology.
