Dear AuntMinnieEurope member,
Our top story this week features a video interview on AI implementation with Dr. Benoît Rizk, chief medical innovation officer at one of Switzerland’s largest private radiology groups, 3R Swiss Imaging Network.
Rizk discussed a number of important issues, including the sycophancy problem in generative AI and the cybersecurity risks that grow as more AI tools are connected to hospital networks.
Our second most highly-read article covered a radiographer session at ECR 2026 on advances in interventional techniques. Meanwhile, a session on gynecologic interventional radiology at the congress described the role IR can play in managing pelvic congestion syndrome, a condition that patients often present with to the IR department as self-referrals.
Researchers from France have also identified four CT signs that could help in predicting ischemia in patients with small bowel obstruction. And MRI has revealed the occurrence of placental contractions.
In other news, an AI algorithm showed strong performance in detecting early pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
See below for our other top stories from the week.
