Radiology, sonography and beyond: Keep reading to find out how imaging techniques like MRI, CT and ultrasound can be used in the diagnosis of diseases and the guidance of medical procedures.
3D + time: a new 4D ultrasound imaging technique could both improve our understanding of the circulatory system and facilitate the diagnosis of certain blood circulation-related diseases.
Developmental dysplasia of the hip occurs in 2-4% of infants, but screening via ultrasound is notoriously hard to master. An AI-assisted application could prevent many unnecessary hospital referrals.
A new approach to PET imaging offers a promising way for physicians to promptly identify patients who are at risk for poor functional recovery after a heart attack, according to new research.
A novel imaging solution, called PSMA PET scanning, can more effectively detect the recurrence of prostate cancer compared to standard methods, and is associated with improved survival outcomes.
When localised breast cancer is identified at an early stage, it is curable. Rising attendance in mammography screening programmes attest to the fact that women have gotten that message. However, the resulting workload increase is a growing challenge for many women’s imaging centres. At the 2025 SBI (Society of Breast Imaging) Symposium in Colorado Springs, USA, breast imaging specialist…
Fujifilm Healthcare Europe announces the release of a new upgrade for its diagnostic ultrasound system Arietta 850 FF Endo, enabling Attenuation Measurement (iATT) and 2D Shear Wave Elastography (SWE) compatibility for the linear curved array Fujifilm EG-740UT ultrasonic endoscope.
An AI system that can predict what a patient’s knee X-ray will look like a year in the future could transform how millions of people with osteoarthritis understand and manage their condition.
A new type of SPECT imaging provides strong prognostic information to guide prostate cancer treatments according to tumor evolution, significantly impacting patients' overall survival.
Cardiac imaging is evolving, and new techniques continue to uncover the secrets of the heart for cardiologists who know how to use them. At the ESC 2025 Congress in Madrid, four experts explored cutting-edge developments across different modalities. Ranging from AI-assisted ultrasound image acquisition and accelerated MRI protocols to advanced prognostic tools for CT and nuclear imaging, these…
At the EANS neurosurgery congress in Vienna, Italian medical imaging company Esaote presented I-Genius, a new open MRI system designed to provide real time checks during glioma surgery.
GLP-1 receptor agonists are widely prescribed for individuals with diabetes and weight loss. However, these medications may adversely affect the interpretation of cancer imaging, new research finds.
Using PET/CT imaging, researchers discovered that the biological activity of visceral fat may drive the progression of endometrial cancer, offering a novel angle for diagnosis and treatment.
New insights on the mechanisms that cause “brain fog” in Long Covid patients: Researchers use a specialized brain imaging technique to identify a potential biomarker and therapeutic target.
This year, the Journées Francophones de Radiologie (JFR) will carry a clinical ambition as simple as it is essential: to shine a spotlight on those who are often overlooked. Under the presidency of Professor Mathieu Lederlin, thoracic radiologist at Rennes University Hospital, vulnerable patients will be at the heart of the annual meeting of the French Society of Radiology that will unfold…
Study of 3.7 million children reveals small but significant increased risk of blood cancers from medical imaging radiation, with CT scans posing highest risk
Using AI to help detect one of the leading killers of women worldwide: A new machine learning model can successfully predict heart disease risk in women by analysing mammograms.
Misinterpreting the malignancy risk of lung nodules often results in high false-positive rates, unnecessary follow-ups, increased patient anxiety and healthcare costs. A new study suggests that AI can fix this.
Imaging specialist Fujifilm Healthcare Europe and the research and training institute IRCAD France have announced a collaboration focused on surgical education and research programs.
Canon announces the launch of the Aquilion One / Insight Edition 160, a new addition to its computed tomography (CT) portfolio. The new system made its debut at Röntgenveckan (Stockholm, Sweden).
AI may be effective at detecting advanced breast cancer in mammograms, but current models still lack reliability. New research from Korea suggests that up to 14% of invasive cases are missed.
Researchers have developed a machine learning algorithm that uses cardiac MRI images to help identify breast cancer patients who may be at risk of cardiotoxicity during cancer treatment. The research, led by cardiologist Dr Paaladinesh Thavendiranathan from Toronto General Hospital University Health Network, was presented at the European Society of Cardiology's Cardio-Oncology Conference in…
An advanced imaging method that uses the natural glow of tissues could help detect subtle differences in the tissue’s biochemistry, offering a way to earlier detect colorectal cancer via endoscopy.
New AI-powered solutions for cardiac ultrasound: Italian medical imaging specialist Esaote will be present at the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Congress 2025, which starts today (29th August) in Madrid.
Patient communication facilitated by chatbots, image quality optimized by machine learning: Artificial intelligence (AI) is entering radiology at breakneck speed, transforming the specialty almost beyond recognition. So, how will the future of diagnostic imaging under AI look like, and which role will humans still play in it? At the ECR congress in Vienna, experts explored the societal and…
Postpartum hemorrhage is a leading cause of maternal death. A new method could help predict which women experiencing severe bleeding after giving birth most likely need life-saving interventions.
