From Diagnosis to Intervention
A joint project of the Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiological Society of Europe and the European Society of Radiology addresses some key points of diagnosis and referral to interventional radiology within the radiology department.
A joint project of the Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiological Society of Europe and the European Society of Radiology addresses some key points of diagnosis and referral to interventional radiology within the radiology department.
Two of the most influential radiology societies in Europe join forces to bring "From Diagnosis to Intervention," an opportunity for diagnostic radiologists to update themselves on some of the treatments and procedures that interventional radiology currently has to offer.
The rapid progress of interventional radiology has enabled its minimally invasive treatments to replace many surgical procedures. This refresher indicates the most prevalent criteria that should alert the diagnostic radiologist to involve his or her colleagues from the interventional radiology department in treatment discussions.
Studies have shown that many more patients could benefit from interventional radiology thanks to the less invasive nature of the procedures, which offer shorter hospital stays; decreased risk, pain, and recovery times; and a reduced requirement of general anesthesia.
"From Diagnosis to Intervention" is a step on the road to developing more knowledge and better communication, and we hope very much that this collaboration between ESR and CIRSE will produce an impact on all our colleagues in the radiology department.
The exhibition will be open throughout ECR 2009, with catering facilities nearby. Whether you simply drop by for a few minutes between sessions or peruse at your leisure, you will most certainly benefit from this one-stop shop of the most prevalent issues in diagnostic and interventional radiology.
CIRSE, the Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiological Society of Europe wishes to thank the European Society of Radiology for this exclusive opportunity of collaboration.
From Diagnosis to Intervention Open daily from 10:00 to 18:00

ECR Study Finds Mixed Results with AI on Breast Ultrasound
March 6th 2024While adjunctive use of AI led to significantly higher specificity and accuracy rates in detecting cancer on breast ultrasound exams in comparison to unassisted reading by breast radiologists, researchers noted that 12 of 13 BI-RADS 3 lesions upgraded by AI were ultimately benign, according to research presented at the European Congress of Radiology.
Can Autonomous AI Help Reduce Prostate MRI Workloads Without Affecting Quality?
March 1st 2024Based on findings from a multicenter study of over 1,600 patients, researchers at the European Congress of Radiology suggest the inclusion of autonomous artificial intelligence (AI) triage could facilitate up to a 75 percent reduction in prostate MRI reading workload.
Five Insights on Artifacts and Limitations with Contrast-Enhanced Mammography
February 29th 2024Noting that technique issues, patient positioning miscues and atypical features can all contribute to faulty interpretation with contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM), researchers at the European Congress of Radiology shared their insights on navigating artifacts and limitations with CEM.
ECR Study Examines Key Predictive Factors for Metastasis in Patients with High-Risk Prostate Cancer
February 28th 2024Sixty-five percent of patients with newly diagnosed high-risk prostate cancer may have extraprostatic extension on MRI, and PSMA PET/CT findings suggest those with Gleason scores of eight or higher have more than double the risk of metastasis, according to a new study presented at the European Congress of Radiology (ECR).
