Dear AuntMinnieEurope Member,
The vast majority of radiology trainees are keen for closer involvement in artificial intelligence (AI), yet less than 30% of them have any experience of working with AI.
That's the key finding of a survey conducted in 2021 of 149 trainees across the U.K. Don't miss our news report on a topic which is of major significance to the future of radiology.
In other AI news, a four-year infrastructure development initiative has been launched. The scheme aims to enhance the use of imaging and technology for precision medicine in cancer patients in the European Union, and the scientific lead is Prof. Luis Martí-Bonmatí, a longstanding and active member of the AuntMinnieEurope.com editorial advisory board.
By far the most visually striking article posted this week was about the so-called golden boy mummy.

Handheld ultrasound scanners are still not being used widely in clinics, but they're emerging fast, according to analysis from market experts Signify Research.
