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.
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.
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.
MIT researchers have developed a miniaturized ultrasound system that could make it easier for breast ultrasounds to be performed more often, either at home or at a doctor’s office.
Rethinking ultrasound gel: To reduce patient discomfort during sonography exams, researchers from Japan propose a natural, reusable solid pad for clearer, more comfortable imaging.
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.
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.
Radiotherapy is effective against prostate cancer but can cause side effects. Using AI, scientists found that images originally taken to help position patients could also predict rectal bleeding.
Researchers developed an X-ray imaging method capable of revealing hidden features in a single shot. This could advance cancer detection, disease monitoring, security screening and material analysis.
Dunlee will present its portfolio of integrated imaging solutions at RSNA 2025 in Chicago, Illinois. The company will demonstrate technologies for diagnostic and therapeutic imaging applications, including developments in Ultra-High Resolution and Photon Counting CT (UHR & PCCT), components for MRI-guided breast biopsies, and onboard imaging systems for radiation therapy.
Philips and Cortechs.ai have extended their collaboration to integrate AI-enabled quantitative neuroimaging analytics directly into MR systems. The partnership aims to provide radiologists with automated, objective measurements of brain structures and lesions to support diagnosis and monitoring of neurological conditions.
A new solution enables doctors to show 3D images of a patient's anatomy during consultations. The technology is designed to help patients understand their conditions and make informed choices.
Has organ imaging using ultrasound arrived at the same level as cross-sectional imaging? At the annual conference of the German Society for Internal Medicine (DGIM), PD Dr Corinna Trenker presented new technological developments and their diagnostic significance. Despite numerous innovations such as multiparametric protocols and AI support, she made it clear that the human factor remains one of…
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) serve as the basis for a novel type of MRI contrast agent, which the developers hope can outperform current agents while being less toxic for the patient.
Researchers developed an AI-assisted brain atlas for visualization at microscopic detail using MRI scans. The tool could transform early detection of Alzheimer's and other neurological diseases.
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.
