Major scientific advances often start with seemingly simple questions, like the one asked by English electrical engineer Sir Godfrey Hounsfield and radiologist Jamie Ambrose: is it possible to work out the contents of a box by taking multiple x-ray pictures in different positions around the object? Their solutions to the problem led to the development […]

Read MoreIn 2004, survival after oesophageal stent placement in the UK was around three months. Advances in oncological and palliative therapies have since extended survival two-to-three-fold, with five-year survival for oesophageal cancer in England approaching 20% in 2023. As a result, stents remain in situ for longer, and failure occurs more often. In this changing landscape, […]

This article examines the importance of embedding sustainability into pre-registration radiography and radiation therapy curricula. As healthcare services expand to meet the needs of growing and ageing populations, their environmental impact has increased significantly. Healthcare is a major contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions and generates substantial waste through energy-intensive technologies and single-use materials. Radiology […]

This article examines the environmental impact of radiotherapy and argues that sustainability must become an integral part of cancer care. The authors highlight that while radiotherapy is an effective, precise and cost-efficient treatment, it also contributes to healthcare-related carbon emissions at a time when the NHS is committed to achieving net zero targets. The article […]

Hepatobiliary scintigraphy, widely known as the HIDA scan, remains an indispensable functional imaging tool for the assessment of hepatocyte function, biliary patency and gallbladder contractility. Despite the maturity of the technique, day-to-day delivery is anything but uniform: the same radiopharmaceutical is asked to answer very different clinical questions, from suspected acute cholecystitis and biliary dyskinesia […]

In the UK, ongoing delays in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) diagnosis, driven in part by reliance on endoscopy, highlight the need for more efficient pathways. Improved understanding of a treat-to-target approach to the management of IBD aimed at transmural healing further challenges traditional investigative approaches. Advances in intestinal ultrasound (IUS) and magnetic resonance enterography (MRE) […]

Bladder cancer is a common and heterogeneous malignancy in which accurate local staging is critical, as management differs fundamentally between non-muscle-invasive and muscle-invasive disease. While cystoscopy and transurethral resection of bladder tumour (TURBT) remain central to both diagnosis and treatment, they have recognised limitations in assessing depth of invasion, with muscle involvement underestimated in a […]

Breast screening remains one of the most effective population-level tools for detecting breast cancer early, when treatment is simpler and outcomes are significantly improved. In the UK, the NHS Breast Screening Programme plays a vital role in reducing mortality, yet its success depends heavily on public engagement at a time when services face rising demand, […]
