7With the open letter published in EJNMMI
Radiophar-macy and Chemistry
by an international working group of
experts, the EJNMMI journal family endorses the
applica-tion of the guidelines in contribuapplica-tions to the journals.
Attached to the letter by the working group is a
three-page summary highlighting the most relevant issues used
in the notation of radiopharmaceuticals and related
terms.
The full paper with all recommendations is published in
“Consensus nomenclature rules for radiopharmaceutical
chemistry
—setting the record straight, Coenen, H.H., Gee

)
”.
All Editors-in-Chiefs of the EJNMMI journals strongly
recommend all manuscripts meet these guidelines upon
submission. In addition, all reviewers will be asked to be
aware of the guidelines and wherever possible to check
if the guidelines are followed.
