Journal of Orthopaedic Science
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Journal of Orthopaedic Science, based out of Tokyo, Japan, is the official journal of the Japanese Orthopaedic Association. The journal focuses primarily on research and topical debates impacting areas of clinical and experiential orthopedics, but often branches out to other areas of research that directly or indirectly impact orthopedics research. The format of the journal includes original articles of research, instructional reviews, lectures, and editorials. It is published by Springer Science+Business Media.
