Abstract

Objective: Describe bibliometric indicators of the Revista Colombiana de Radiología from its first issue in 1989 to the last one of 2018. Materials and methods: A database was created in the JabRef reference software with all the publications found. Each reference has information about the authors, volume, number, year of publication and abstract, as well as data such as institutional affiliation of the authors, geographical location, type of publication, type of study and topic. Through a simple statistical analysis, the main variables, production and bibliometric indicators were analyzed, such as the number of publications by number, year, author, institutional affiliation, location, topic and type of publication. For the impact indicators the citations of the entire journal production were searched in different databases and search engines with posterior analysis. Results: In total there were 902 publications. The year with more publications was 2011 and the most frequent type of publication was case report. The areas with the most publications were body image and neuroradiology. The cities in Colombia with the highest number of publications were Bogotá and Medellín. The institutions that published the most were the Hospital Universitario San Ignacio - Pontificia Universidad Javeriana and Fundación Santa Fe de Bogotá - Universidad del Bosque. Conclusions: The Revista Colombiana de Radiología is the leading journal on radiology in the country. This journal has a considerable amount of publications of different types and topics. This bibliometric review can serve as an input to make decisions regarding the future of the journal.
