CT scans of Tyrannosaurus rex unlock fossil's hidden secrets
A German team has used dual-energy CT (DECT) to identify bone disease in the fossilized jaw of a Tyrannosaurus rex named Tristan Otto. The work, presented at RSNA 2021, underlines the value of DECT as a noninvasive tool for paleontologists to investigate fossils.

CT reveals shocking injury caused by COVID-19 nasal swab
A Czech team has treated a patient for a cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak after a COVID-19 test with a nasal swab led to an injury at the base of his skull. This is thought to be the first case of a CSF fistula after nasal swab testing in a healthy patient with no preexisting skull base condition.

Urine test and CT can boost detection of adrenal cancer
Employing a "triple test strategy" that combines lab work and imaging could improve the detection of adrenal cancer and reduce costs and time to surgery for patients, according to a pan-European study published online on 23 July in the Lancet Diabetes and Endocrinology.

ECR 2026
When war hits your radiology department
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.
'We can see what the clinicians cannot see, and especially sarcopenia and osteoporosis are under-reported and under-diagnosed,' said Kerensa Beekman, MD, PhD, of Radboud University Medical Center.

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.
