For young researchers starting in a specific field of work, it is not always easy to make an opinion of a journal which potential for publication apart from the basis of peers’ advices and indicators such as impact factor. In this paper we use web technologies to create a scientometric picture, using bibliometric analysis methods, of the journal NeuroImage from its creation in 1992 until 2009. The aim of this work is show how to provide a good account of the journal’s bibliometrics which will help to quickly identify the journal’s main features. Results indicated that the Neuro Image literature consists of a total of 11604 contributions. The five top 5 major contributors were identified to be Kark J. Friston, Jon Ash burner, Keith J. Worsley, Bruce R. Fischl and Thomas E. Nichols. The top 5 most cited papers achieve very high number of citations (from 1026 to 1888). From authors affiliation, we also found strong international collaboration between US and Europe including UK, Germany, Switzerland, France and Italy, and with Asian countries such as Japan and China, shown using a strength color-coded connection-wheel diagram. This study will help future web sites to provide more bibliometric information about scientific journals, authors and research fields. As these are evolving very rapidly after each publication issue (e.g. citation counts, new contributing authors, etc.), web tools should be developed to provide the most recent bibliometric updates.
