The Irish Medical Journal operates a rigorous peer review process to ensure the quality of the articles it publishes. Manuscripts submitted to the journal are initially screened by the editor for suitability. If a manuscript is deemed suitable, it is then sent to at least two independent reviewers who assess the manuscript for scientific validity and significance. The editor then makes a decision on whether to accept, reject, or request revisions to the manuscript based on the reviewers' comments.
