At Rockefeller University Press, we have conducted in-house image forensic checks for decades, combining expert visual assessment in Photoshop with strong editorial oversight. Imagetwin strengthens this process by identifying image duplications that are difficult or impossible for the human eye to detect, particularly across previously published literature, even from other journals and preprints. Duplication and plagiarism detection capabilities extend our existing integrity checks, much as text screening tools have supported plagiarism detection for years. The visual comparison interface, especially the side-by-side “eyeball” view, makes it straightforward to assess flagged cases efficiently while preserving the critical role of human judgment in editorial decisions.
