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.
A PSMA PET/CT imaging test could safely halve the number of people who need a biopsy for suspected prostate cancer following inconclusive or reassuring results from an MRI scan, new research finds.
The get up patient transfer aid from febromed addresses the challenge of musculoskeletal complaints in radiology professionals by supporting patients during standing up, repositioning and transfer.
Breast cancer screening could also be used to screen for cardiovascular disease, new research suggests: The risk of serious or fatal heart disease can be predicted with AI analysis of mammograms.
A new targeted PET/CT tracer can detect treatment response in rheumatoid arthritis patients in as little as four weeks, and potentially even at the start of treatment, according to new research.
Artificial intelligence has a critical role to play in supporting clinicians beyond the initial breast cancer diagnosis. At the European Society of Breast Imaging (EUSOBI) annual scientific meeting in Aberdeen, Scotland, Professor Gerald Lip outlined how AI can enhance the performance of modalities such as ultrasound and MRI in supporting clinicians as they plan and deliver treatment for patients.
Today’s advanced CT applications require outstanding spatial resolution for both image quality and workflow. To make the most out of the current detector technology, attention has shifted to utilizing the X-ray source to increase spatial resolution, through extra small focal spots.
“A small handle with a big impact.” Radiographers at Rheinland Klinikum Neuss in Germany report measurable physical relief in daily patient transfers thanks to the ceiling-mounted patient transfer aid febromed get up®.
Fujifilm Healthcare Europe will present the new Arietta DeepInsight x ultrasound technology platforms at the House of Fujifilm experience at ECR 2026: Rays of Knowledge.
Italian imaging company Esaote will be at the European Congress of Radiology 2026 (Booth 505, Expo Hall X5) and present latest additions to their ultrasound, MRI and Enterprise Imaging portfolio.
Few medical specialties evolve as rapidly as radiology. Continuous advances in imaging technology, the integration of artificial intelligence, and growing interdisciplinary collaboration demand that professionals stay at the forefront of knowledge. The European Congress of Radiology (ECR) 2026 in Vienna embraces this reality with its motto “Rays of Knowledge”.
Study shows women with stage IV breast cancer detected through screening have a 60% chance of survival ten years after diagnosis – compared to under 20% for those not detected through screening.
New research shows that using ultra-low field (ULF) MRI for breast imaging could offer an alternative to existing breast cancer screening methods and may reduce barriers to screening.
A breakthrough in cardiac electrophysiology: the first system capable of simultaneously mapping all 4 chambers of the heart, providing physicians with a comprehensive, real-time view of arrhythmias.
Researchers have developed 3D volume rendering methods for cardiac MRI that display complex structures within the heart and show blood flow. This can guide treatment decisions in pediatric patients.
A new kind of intraoperative MRI (iMRI) can perform functional MRI scans in real time during brain surgery — helping surgeons detect potential complications in as little as seven seconds.
Transgender patients are largely invisible in breast cancer screening statistics – and many never receive an invitation to participate in screening programmes. Guidelines exist, but awareness among referring physicians remains low. Experts say radiology departments are best positioned to lead the change by creating inclusive environments and actively reaching out to this underserved population.…
A study of 200 lung cancer patients shows photon-counting CT cuts radiation by 66% and contrast agent by 27% - while delivering sharper images and better tumor detection than conventional CT.
Rethinking ultrasound gel: To reduce patient discomfort during sonography exams, researchers from Japan propose a natural, reusable solid pad for clearer, more comfortable imaging.
Beyond "one-size-fits-all": A new strategy that combines two types of PET scans can guide personalized radiotherapy for head and neck cancers, according to new research.
Can a full MRI scanner be shrunk to fit through a hospital door, moved by hand, and still produce diagnostic images – including 3D and DWI sequences? At the ESMRMB 2025 Congress in Marseille, Zhiyong Zhang, researcher at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, offered a detailed demonstration that the answer is yes – if you re-engineer every layer of the machine, from magnets to mobility.
In today’s radiology environment, speed alone is not enough. What truly matters is intelligent workflow, diagnostic confidence and consistent performance even under pressure. Samsung’s GC85A Vision+ is designed exactly for that reality.
Enter the "House of Fujifilm" at ECR 2026: At the radiology congress, the company will open a dedicated space featuring workshops, demonstrations, and knowledge-sharing opportunities.
When radiologists at Stockholm's Capio Sankt Görans Hospital began working evenings and weekends to clear mounting backlogs, it became clear that something had to change. The solution? Replacing one of the two radiologists traditionally assigned to read breast cancer screenings with artificial intelligence (AI). The results: fewer false positives, more cancers detected, and radiologists…
Researchers at Osaka Metropolitan University have discovered a practical way to detect and fix common AI labeling errors in large collections of radiology images.
At the JFR 2025 (Journées Françaises de Radiologie), the annual meeting of the French Society of Radiology, an organist and a neuroradiologist came together to share a story that bridges two worlds rarely seen in dialogue – that of sound and that of images. One listens, the other looks. Yet both try to understand the same mystery: what happens in the human brain when music takes control?
