How interventional radiology is making radiation visible
By Claudia Tschabuschnig
A live demonstration at ECR 2026 showed how virtual-reality (VR) training makes radiation visible in real time, and why neuro-interventional procedures demand a level of dose awareness the field is now trying to operationalize.

Radiology's reproducibility problem is bigger than open access
By Claudia Tschabuschnig
The promise of open access was democratization: publicly funded research, freely available to anyone. But a paper anyone can read is not the same as a result anyone can check, and in radiology, the data, code, and methodology needed to verify most published findings are still almost never shared.

Photon-counting CT reveals plaque progression despite statins
By Claudia Tschabuschnig
Photon-counting CT has been praised for image quality and dose reduction. New HURRICANE study data show it can also track coronary plaque progression over time, revealing ongoing disease despite guideline-directed statin therapy.
April 8, 2026
'With photon-counting CT we can quantify plaque volume and its components objectively and track how they change over time,' said Mariaelena Occhipinti, MD, PhD, of Fondazione Gabriele Monasterio Regione Toscana CNR in Pisa, Italy.
