Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) holds great potential to spare men with suspected prostate cancer a painful biopsy. In our interview, Dr. Peter Seidensticker, Head of Medical Affairs Radiology at Bayer, outlines how MRI could be implemented as a first-line diagnostic.
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.
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…
Gadolinium-based contrast agents enhance visibility but also pose a significant health risk. A new AI-powered virtual MRI imaging technique is designed to offer a safer diagnostic approach.
Medical imaging methods are often affected by background noise, which can obscure fine anatomical details. A new approach to solve this problem draws inspiration from quantum mechanics.
Denoising of diffusion-weighted MRI data creates sharper images – but does it actually lead to better diagnostic results? Researchers explored the impact of noise removal on detecting abnormalities.
Using cardiac MRI, researchers have found that long-term exposure to air pollution is associated with early signs of heart damage, according to a new study.
Analyzing heart imaging and a full spectrum of medical records, a new AI tool can reveal previously hidden information about a patient’s heart health, including predictions of sudden cardiac arrest.
An AI-assisted model can take low-quality MRI heart scans and turn them into high quality images, while reducing the time needed to scan the heart by about 90%.
MRI study of 802 patients shows carotid plaques become more complex over six years, with calcified plaques twice as likely to develop dangerous internal bleeding.
A quarter of deaths in the UK are caused by heart disease, the equivalent of one person every 3 seconds. New research suggests that effective diagnosis might literally be as easy as riding a bike.
United Imaging, a global leader in cutting-edge diagnostic imaging and radiotherapy solutions, proudly unveils two groundbreaking additions to its portfolio — the uMI Panvivo and the uMR Ultra — both newly CE-marked and set to redefine the standards of precision and performance in medical imaging.
Experts from the University of Nottingham have proven that multiple sclerosis can successfully be diagnosed using an MRI scan, meaning patients no longer need to undergo a painful lumbar puncture.
Diagnosing breast cancer in women with extremely dense breasts often comes down to MRI, but the scans take long and are expensive. Research confirms that shorter protocols also yield accurate results.
People at risk of cardiovascular disease could be identified a decade before they have a heart attack or stroke, a new University of Dundee study has discovered.
A new 4D flow MRI method could accelerate diagnosis of aortic stenosis, a progressive and potentially fatal heart condition.
Announcing the first edition of the MSK Imaging in Sports Medicine, with the unrestricted support of Esaote. The event will take place on May 30, 2025, in Florence, Italy, at Viola Park, one of the largest sports centers in Europe.
Breast MRI has emerged as a powerful diagnostic tool, particularly for women with dense breast tissue where traditional mammography faces limitations. In her presentation at ECR 2025, radiographer Hanna Kalliomäki highlighted several technological advances transforming breast cancer detection and diagnosis. From time-saving abbreviated protocols and AI-assisted analysis to contrast-free…
