Biomedical Engineering Aims and scope

Publication activity in the field of Biomedical Engineering in 2003-2012 (citation index, impact factor, SCImago Journal Ranking (SJR), Source-Normalized Impact per Paper (SNIP), Hirsch index) is reviewed. The algorithm of the search for information in the Scopus database (DB) is explained. Within the last decade (2003-2012) a total of 76,851 works devoted to biomedical engineering were issued worldwide (16% of publications in the field of medicine). The annual increment of the Scopus DB is 7,700 ± 300 works in biomedical engineering. The integration of Russian researchers in the international community is still insufficient (only 546 papers of Russian authors were included in the Scopus DB). Ways to improve the publication activity of domestic scientists are discussed.
