Imaging is transforming healthcare by empowering researchers, clinicians, and innovators to tackle urgent challenges and accelerate personalised care. Breakthroughs in modular imaging systems, multispectral hybrid technologies and image-guided interventions drive rapid change across healthcare & society. In this session, we provide insights into the National Technology Strategy (NTS) Imaging and share key outcomes from the Precision Medicine project. Together, we’ll explore how to turn knowledge and strategy into real-world solutions. Join us, be inspired and help shape the imaging future now.
