What journals qualify as a peer-reviewed journal?
The term “peer reviewed journal” is a publishing industry and science community term. It refers to journals that require a review of papers that have been submitted for publication consideration to a group of professional peers with expertise within the profession. There are many peer-reviewed journals. Examples of peer-reviewed journals within the sonography community include: • Journal of Diagnostic Medical Sonography • Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine • Journal of Vascular Technology • Journal of the American Society of Echocardiography The APS® does not stipulate that the publication requirement is tied to any specific journal. The only qualification is that the journal be peer-reviewed.
