Week in Review: The cost of low light | Photon-counting CT | AI and cybersecurity

Dear AuntMinnieEurope member,

Radiologists spend most of their work time in very low-light environments. But how does that affect their well-being? A recent review produced some interesting findings.

Photon-counting CT (PCCT) continues to demonstrate its clinical utility. In a study presented at ECR 2026, researchers described how PCCT can quantify and track coronary plaque progression.

Another popular article on AuntMinnieEurope last week featured cybersecurity issues in radiology and the role of AI.

In other news from ECR 2026, researchers compared the costs and benefits of low- and high-field MRI, including the contribution of MRI acceleration techniques. And another popular story from the congress discussed challenges in the reproducibility of radiology research.

See below for our other top stories from the week.
