Researchers conducted the first randomized trial of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE)-guided CPR, showing improved blood flow indicators during resuscitation of cardiac arrest patients.
Researchers are developing a portable AI-powered scanning slit-light device, designed to make ophthalmic care more accessible, so patients can be assessed any place, and any time.
One phishing email sends an entire county’s health service back into the age of pen and paper for months. A hidden prompt is buried within an abdominal CT image: At ECR 2026 in Vienna, cybersecurity experts presented real-world cases that read like ghost stories: tales that exemplify new vulnerabilities in modern AI-driven radiology systems – and how to avoid them.
Imaging left ventricular function is challenging for patients who cannot hold their breath for long. A new AI-enhanced MRI technique captures the entire cardiac cycle in a single shot.
Neither radiologists nor multimodal large language models (LLMs) are able to easily distinguish AI-generated “deepfake” X-ray images from authentic ones, according to a new study.
A new X-ray imaging technique could transform how hospitals analyse tissue samples, potentially speeding up diagnoses and improving outcomes for patients, a new study shows.
Sakura Finetek and Hamamatsu Photonics K.K. have announced a collaboration aimed at standardising slide preparation and digitisation to support diagnostic accuracy in pathology.
Detector technology gets most of the attention in modern CT systems – but a new whitepaper by Dunlee, presented at ECR 2026, argues that the X-ray tube is equally decisive.
At this year’s European Congress of Radiology (ECR) in Vienna, Bayer presented new data on a contrast agent that could transform MRI imaging: gadoquatrane, which requires up to 60% less gadolinium than previous standard macrocyclic preparations whilst maintaining the same diagnostic accuracy. Prof. Hubertus Pietsch, Head of MRI & CT Contrast Agent Research at Bayer and one of the key…
Psychiatrists and neuroimaging experts gathered to explore one of the last remaining frontiers in radiology – the human mind – at the annual meeting of the French Society of Radiology (JFR) last October in Paris. Their conversation oscillated between neurons and narratives, algorithms and emotions – a vivid reminder that psychiatry is not only about understanding the brain, but about…
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.
Leveraging the power of chaos theory, experts have developed a new way to encrypt medical images such as X-ray, CT and MRI scans, keeping them secure even if hospital networks are breached.
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.
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.
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”.
A new type of 3D imaging reveals how amyloid β (Aβ) deposits spread along blood vessels in the human brain. This could lead to targeted therapies for Alzheimer's disease and CAA.
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.
