'If you want to get this off the ground, coordinate locally with the cooperation partners that are necessary anyway, and set it up together. BDR and DRG are moving forward on this jointly,' said Prof. Dr. Hermann Helmberger, BDR president.

First signals from Germany's lung cancer screening

Germany launched statutory LDCT lung cancer screening on 1 April 2026, marking one of Europe's most consequential screening rollouts. But at RÖKO Digital, experts made clear that the hard work of implementation from funding to infrastructure, local coordination, and AI integration, is only about to start.

MRI reveals occurrence of placental contractions

By Kate Madden Yee

Characterizing these contractions could help clinicians better understand the placenta's function.

April 29, 2026

Uterine and placental changes during an example placental contraction. The top row shows axial MRI images at selected times points before, during and after a placental contraction (indicated by vertical lines on the graph below) with segmentations shown below. Changes in placental and non-placental volumes, wall areas and placental R2* (all measured across the whole volume of the uterus, not just the single slice shown) are plotted underneath. The legend indicates the colors used for the lines in the plots and the regions indicated in the segmentation.

Lu-177 PSMA-SPECT/CT predicts survival in mCRPC

Lu-177 PSMA-617 SPECT/CT total tumor volume complete response at six weeks associated with overall survival.

April 29, 2026

Quantification of total tumor volume (TTV) at lutetium-177 prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)–617 SPECT/CT shows heterogeneous TTV responses between dose 1 (Cycle #1) and dose 2 (Cycle #2) in participants with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. Posttherapy coronal attenuation-corrected noncontrast SPECT/CT maximum intensity projection images demonstrate (A) near-complete response in a 76-year-old man, (B) complete response in an 83-year-old man, (C) partial TTV reduction (not complete response) in a 69-year-old man, and (D) TTV increase (i.e. progressive disease) in a 74-year-old man. Blue-shaded regions represent semiautomatically segmented PSMA-avid tumor volume, with associated TTV values given at the bottom of each panel. The gradient bar shows standardized uptake value (SUV) from 0 to 5.

AI model predicts cardiovascular risk from BACs on mammograms

By Amerigo Allegretto

An AI model showed success in using age-adjusted breast arterial calcifications from mammograms to predict cardiovascular events.

April 27, 2026

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.
