Dear AuntMinnie Europe member,
Our most highly read story in our MRI content area recently was our coverage of a missile strike that severely damaged the Innova Diagnostica imaging center in Odesa, Ukraine. In case you missed it, you can find our report here.
Next up was our update on the progress of European pilot sites for prostate cancer screening. In addition, new research from the U.K. found that diastolic function markers derived from cardiac MRI exams can independently predict heart failure and arrythmia, offering incremental value over clinical risk factors and established imaging markers.
Mixed-brand cardiac implants can potentially cause MRI safety issues. A new approach for measuring electrical properties such as generator impedance could help determine whether these devices are safe, however.
A number of presentations at the annual meeting of the German Society of Pediatric Radiology (GPR) focused on MRI topics, including discussions on contrast-free MR angiography and whole-body MRI. Click here for our wrap-up article from GPR 2026.
Also, AI analysis of body composition from whole-body MRI exams can predict how well multiple myeloma patients will respond to therapy.
For these and other MRI stories, we invite you to stop by our dedicated MRI content area.
