Example of Percentile Nomogram With Age-Adjusted BAC Quartiles. (A) Mammogram of a 56-year-old woman. There is evident BAC (pink arrow). This was quantified as a BAC score of 30 using the cmAngio tool. (B) Nomogram indicating that a BAC score of 30 places a 56-year-old woman within the 50th to 75th percentile for her age.

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.

How best to characterize CT lung findings after radiation therapy
By Kate Madden Yee
Serial chest CT is cornerstone of post-RT surveillance, but "accurate interpretation is critical to avoid misdiagnosis."

Acute radiation-induced pneumonitis after SBRT (65 Gy, four fractions) in a 53-year-old woman with leiomyosarcoma of the uterus with a left lower lobe metastasis manifesting as a small nodule (not shown). (A) Axial dosimetric reconstruction of a CT image obtained for SBRT planning shows the metastasis receiving the maximal isodose (6500 cGy). (B) Axial CT image obtained 12 months after completion of RT shows focal ground-glass and consolidative opacities confined to the treatment plan (arrow). Note that acute lung injury with SBRT typically manifests later than with conventional RT (i.e., >12 weeks after completion of therapy), and in 25% of patients, the first CT manifestations occur more than one year after completion of RT.
