Sand scanners: Austrian-led team delivers quality in the desert

An oasis in the Arabian Desert was an unlikely place for an Austrian radiologist to be offered the most extraordinary opportunity of his career. But as European radiologists worry about job security, Dr. Michael Fuchsjäger and his multinational team's story shows how the best professional opportunities may lie a long way from home.

Angiography-based FFR validated in patients with coronary artery disease

Vessel fractional flow reserve (vFFR) was found a noninferior alternative to invasive pressure-wire–based FFR for guiding revascularization decisions.

When war hits your radiology department

By Claudia Tschabuschnig

More than 2,881 attacks on healthcare in Ukraine have been documented since February 2022. At ECR 2026, a radiologist from Kyiv walked a room of European colleagues through what that actually means for a department, and what to do before it happens to yours.

ECR: The scan you've already done: Body composition's missing picture

By Claudia Tschabuschnig

The argument for body composition in radiology is not about acquiring new data, but about reading what's already there. At ECR 2026, two sessions made the case that every CT scan already holds information that could change a patient's prognosis. Most of it is never reported.

Radiology's carbon problem needs more than good intentions

By Claudia Tschabuschnig

Healthcare generates 4.4% of global emissions. Radiology accounts for a notable slice. At ECR 2026, three perspectives on the same problem showed exactly why change is slow and where the real leverage is.

Training, standards needed for radiographers to perform POCUS

By Amerigo Allegretto

Training, standardization, and careful management are needed for radiographers to regularly use point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) in imaging departments.
