There were 89 articles published in the Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (JCMR) in 2020, including 71 original research papers, 5 technical notes, 6 reviews, 4 Society for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (SCMR) position papers/guidelines/protocols and 3 corrections. The volume was up 12.7% from 2019 (n = 79) with a corresponding 17.9% increase in manuscript submissions from 369 to 435. This led to a slight increase in the acceptance rate from 22 to 23%. The quality of the submissions continues to be high. The 2020 JCMR Impact Factor (which is published in June 2020) slightly increased from 5.361 to 5.364 placing us in the top quartile of Society and cardiac imaging journals. Our 5 year impact factor increased from 5.18 to 6.52. Fourteen years ago, the JCMR was at the forefront of medical and medical society journal migration to the Open-Access format. The Open-Access system has dramatically increased the availability and citation of JCMR publications with accesses now exceeding 1.2 M! It takes a village to run a journal. JCMR is blessed to have a group of very dedicated Associate Editors, Guest Editors, Journal Club Editors, and Reviewers. I thank each of them for their efforts to ensure that the review process occurs in a timely and responsible manner. These efforts have allowed the JCMR to continue as the premier journal of our field. My role, and the entire process would not be possible without the dedication and efforts of our new managing editor, Jennifer Rodriguez, whose premier organizational efforts have allowed for streamlining of the review process and marked improvement in our time-to-decision (see later). As I begin my 6th and final year as your editor-in-chief, I thank you for entrusting me with the JCMR editorship. I hope that you will continue to send us your very best, high quality manuscripts for JCMR consideration and that our readers will continue to look to JCMR for the very best/state-of-the-art CMR publications. The editorial process continues to be a tremendously fulfilling experience and the opportunity to review manuscripts that reflect the best in our field remains a great joy and true highlight of my week!

“…While the JCMR does not accept case reports, for many years, the SCMR web site has an active “Case of the Week” ( https://scmr.org/page/caseoftheweekLDGPG ) series, currently coordinated by Dr. Sylvia Chen. For the second time, in 2021, we published the prior year’s annual case series as a single manuscript [ 15 ]. This unified publication is planned as an annual occurrence in JCMR to allow for these illustrative cases to be more widely available to search engines.…”

In 2021, there were 136 articles published in the Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (JCMR), including 122 original research papers, six reviews, four technical notes, one Society for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (SCMR) guideline, one SCMR position paper, one study protocol, and one obituary (Nathaniel Reichek). The volume was up 53% from 2020 (n = 89) with a corresponding 21% decrease in manuscript submissions from 435 to 345. This led to an increase in the acceptance rate from 24 to 32%. The quality of the submissions continues to be high. The 2021 JCMR Impact Factor (which is released in June 2022) markedly increased from 5.41 to 6.90 placing us in the top quartile of Society and cardiac imaging journals. Our 5 year impact factor similarly increased from 6.52 to 7.25. Fifteen years ago, the JCMR was at the forefront of medical and medical society journal migration to the Open-Access format. The Open-Access system has dramatically increased the availability and JCMR citation. Full-text article requests in 2021 approached 1.5 M!. As I have mentioned, it takes a village to run a journal. JCMR is very fortunate to have a group of very dedicated Associate Editors, Guest Editors, Journal Club Editors, and Reviewers. I thank each of them for their efforts to ensure that the review process occurs in a timely and responsible manner. These efforts have allowed the JCMR to continue as the premier journal of our field. My role, and the entire editorial process would not be possible without the ongoing high dedication and efforts of our managing editor, Jennifer Rodriguez. Her premier organizational skills have allowed for streamlining of the review process and marked improvement in our time-to-decision (see later). As I conclude my 6th and final year as your editor-in-chief, I thank you for entrusting me with the JCMR editorship and appreciate the time I have had at the helm. I am very confident that our Journal will reach new heights under the stewardship of Dr. Tim Leiner, currently at the Mayo Clinic with a seamless transition occurring as I write this in late November. I hope that you will continue to send your very best, high quality CMR manuscripts to JCMR, and that our readers will continue to look to JCMR for the very best/state-of-the-art CMR publications.

“…CMR often reveals T2 signal elevation in the acute phase and patchy or diffuse subendocardial LGE in a noncoronary distribution in the chronic phase [1]. The case is unique in the presence of myocardial fat deposition, previously described only once, and may represent an atypical feature of the disease [5]. The pathophysiologic mechanism of fat deposition is unknown in HES [5].…”
