Experts in Conversation: MRI contrast and AI advances from ECR 2026

Fresh from European Congress of Radiology 2026, Minerva Becker and Carlo Cosimo Quattrocchi share key insights on how emerging evidence is reshaping the use of MRI contrast agents, challenging when gadolinium is truly needed and highlighting next-generation agents that enable meaningful dose reduction without compromising diagnostic performance.

They also explore the growing role of AI in enhancing image quality and supports a shift toward more precise, guideline-driven, and patient-centred imaging—offering practical takeaways that could directly impact your clinical practice.
