Journal of Biomedical Optics (JBO)

The Journal of Biomedical Optics is an international peer-reviewed scientific journal published by SPIE, focusing on the application of optical science and engineering to biomedical research and healthcare. Established in 1996, the journal has become a leading platform for research in biophotonics, medical imaging, and optical diagnostics. The journal publishes original research articles, reviews, and technical papers covering a wide range of topics including optical imaging systems, laser-tissue interactions, spectroscopy, microscopy, and biomedical sensing technologies. It emphasizes both fundamental optical science and its translational applications in medicine, such as disease detection, surgical guidance, and therapeutic monitoring. A key strength of the Journal of Biomedical Optics is its interdisciplinary nature, bridging physics, engineering, biology, and clinical medicine. Researchers from academia, industry, and healthcare sectors contribute to advancing optical technologies that improve diagnosis and treatment of diseases. The journal is indexed in major databases such as Web of Science and Scopus and maintains strong global visibility. With an impact factor around 3 and consistent monthly publication, it is considered a reputable journal in biomedical engineering and optics. Under the leadership of Editor-in-Chief Muyinatu A. Lediju Bell, it continues to support innovation in biophotonics and medical optical technologies.
