Hot shots from Wiesbaden: RöKo 2025 picture gallery

The in-person element of the 106th edition of the German Radiology Congress (Deutscher Röntgenkongress, RöKo 2025) wound up in Wiesbaden on 30 May. To mark the occasion, below is a selection of images from the onsite meeting (click on thumbnail for photo caption).

Thumbnails:
Dr. Stefan Lohwasser (second row, wearing glasses and navy suit), managing director of the German Röntgen Society (Deutsche Roentgengesellschaft, DRG), and his team worked tirelessly to ensure the smooth running of the congress. They urged thousands of attendees to rate the presentations and influence next year’s congress program, via the same app they used for attendance registration. All photos courtesy of Dr. Saif Afat and the DRG.
The “Saifie” was born at RöKo 2025! Dr. Saif Afat, chairperson of the ESR Radiology Trainees Forum Subcommittee and managing senior physician at the University Hospital of Tübingen, invited attendees to pose with him for selfies during the congress. He’s shown here with (from left to right): Prof. Dr. Mathias Goyen, chief medical officer at GE HealthCare; Prof. Dr. Markus Juchems, head of radiology at Klinikum Konstanz; Prof. Dr. Fabian Bamberg, head of radiology at University Medical Center Freiburg; and Prof. Dr. Johannes Wessling, head of radiology at Clemenshospital Münster.
Radiology’s key priorities are to become more visible, develop great collaboration with other medical disciplines, and adopt clear positions on ethical problems, said the DRG's Prof. Dr. Konstantin Nikolaou during the opening session. He also emphasized the need for more efforts to support the next generation of healthcare professionals through attractive career pathways, modern learning techniques, and positive work environments. Instead of criticizing young people for their different values, we must try to understand them better, Nikolaou pointed out.
Students from the Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen Junior Academy in Remscheid-Lennep visited the congress on Thursday. Equipped with video cameras, lighting, and sound systems, they conducted short interviews at the meeting.
In addition to the scientific sessions, a well-attended exhibition was laid on at the conference venue, Das Rhein-Main-CongressCenter. The major vendors were all represented.
An entry-level course on interventional radiology was held at RöKo 2025 -- from medical school to continuing education and specialization. There were opportunities to gain practical insights into interventional work using phantom models and original materials. Hands-on angiography sessions took place on both 28 and 29 May.
“Saifie” strikes again! Dr. Saif Afat, who will preside over RöKo 2026 in Wiesbaden and is a member of the Aunt Minnie Europe editorial advisory board, enjoys a lighter moment with Prof. Mike Notohamiprodjo, managing partner at DIE RADIOLOGIE in Munich.
Dr. Isabel Molwitz from the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf received the Albers Schönberg Medal 2025 from Prof. Dr. Christiane Kuhl.
Former ESR President Prof. Regina Beets-Tan received honorary membership of the DRG from Prof. Dr. Konstantin Nikolaou.
The 107th edition of the Deutscher Röntgenkongress (RÖKO 2026) will take place from 13 to 15 May 2026 at the Congress Center Leipzig. In addition, RÖKO DIGITAL will run from 11 March to 20 June 2026. This year’s edition of RÖKO DIGITAL will run until 21 June 2025. For details, go to the organizers’ website.
