Cover Story: In 1997, a prospective population-based study started in northeastern Germany—the Study of Health in Pomerania (SHIP). Whereas most epidemiological studies focus on selected diseases, SHIP examines health and illness in their whole complexity. Since 2008, the extensive program has included whole-body MR imaging at 1.5 Tesla. The huge amount of data allowed generating reference values, determining the prevalence and incidence of diseases or incidental findings, and analyzing associations between morphological MR phenotypes and the genome, risk factors, subclinical disorders or manifest affliction. In a retrospective 12 years after initiation, the more than 100 publications that originated from these SHIP-MR data were analyzed regarding which MR sequences were most frequently used for scientific output, or which manuscripts have gained most citations and ranked highest. View this paper.
