JAKOBSEN, OSLO CARSTEN THOMSEN, COPENHAGEN INDICES Volume 41 (2000) A thank you to the experts who support the Editorial Board The editors wish to express their gratitude and appreciation to all those specialists in radiology, physics and other fields who have so greatly contributed to the process of reviewing the manuscripts for Acta Radiologica. We sincerely hope that this sometimes very difficult and time-consuming analysis of manuscripts has been of value in your own research and not only a burden.
