II National AITeRTC Congress 2025
Sustainable and shared imaging:
the key to an integrated system of efficiency
The new frontiers of diagnostic imaging, resource optimization, environmental sustainability, digital innovation and professional synergy.
In an era of digital transformation and predictive medicine, the congress will be a hub for interdisciplinary discussion, where technology and skills merge to redefine the future of diagnostic imaging, making it smarter, more personalized and accessible.
A SCIENTIFIC PROGRAM PROJECTED INTO THE FUTURE
The congress will offer an in-depth path on emerging technologies and operational strategies for more sustainable, interconnected and predictive diagnostics.
🔹 Emergency and major trauma: the ideal compromise of imaging
The trauma network: management algorithms, multidisciplinary teams and quality of pathways for timely and effective imaging.🔹 The challenge of pediatric imaging in non-specialized facilities
Focus on adaptive protocols, artificial intelligence and low-dose methods to ensure quality care even in contexts with resources not specifically intended for infants, children and adolescents.🔹 Cardiovascular imaging: there’s more beyond the coronary arteries
A diagnostic evolution that goes beyond conventional cardiac CT, to explore new dynamic, predictive and personalized imaging tools, responding to the needs of internists and surgeons with advanced anatomical-functional evaluation models.🔹 Spectral Tomography: from theory to clinical application
A paradigm shift: spectral tomography as a molecular magnifying glass, capable of providing not only anatomical, but also functional and metabolic information, anticipating the future of early diagnosis, personalizing therapeutic pathways and reducing patient management costs.
SPACE FOR LABORATORIES AND INTERACTIVE ACTIVITIES
During both days of the congress, in addition to the plenary sessions, laboratory and interactive activities will be organized directly by the Scientific Committee and the companies present.
Participants will have the opportunity to experiment with the most advanced technologies, test post-processing software, simulate diagnostic scenarios in virtual environments and delve into the application of artificial intelligence and spectral tomography in clinical practice.
These sessions represent a unique opportunity to translate theory into practice, interact with industry experts and understand the innovative potential of new technologies for more efficient, sustainable and quality imaging
INNOVATION AND MULTIDISCIPLINARY COMPARISON: THE FUTURE OF THE DIAGNOSTIC ECOSYSTEM
The 2nd AITeRTC National Congress will be the meeting point between Medical Radiology Technicians, Radiologists, Medical Physicists, Biomedical Engineers, Data Scientists and other professionals in the sector.
The goal? To overcome the concept of traditional imaging and project the diagnostic imaging technique into a new era, where machine learning, augmented reality and robotics become key tools for an integrated, efficient and predictive system.
AN IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE IN PARMA: BETWEEN SCIENCE AND CULTURE
In addition to the scientific sessions, participants will have the opportunity to live a multisensory experience in the heart of Parma, the capital of music, art and Italian food and wine tradition.
Interactive workshops, immersive networking and moments dedicated to the discovery of local excellence will make the event not only an opportunity for professional growth, but an unforgettable experience.
AN INVITATION TO BUILD THE FUTURE OF DIAGNOSTIC IMAGING TECHNIQUE
AITeRTC invites all professionals in the sector to participate in this unique event, to actively contribute to the debate on sustainable imaging, shared and increasingly interconnected.
The Sim.Lab Hub is born
Simulation is now at the core of TSRM training: from the first year of the degree course to the reskilling of seasoned professionals, virtual environments bridge staffing gaps and keep pace with technological innovation.
The growing training demand, the shortage of personnel, and the rapid technological and technical diversification in diagnostic and therapeutic settings make it essential to strengthen virtual tools not only for basic education (bachelor’s degree) but also for postgraduate training and the reskilling of both experienced and newly hired TSRMs.
Therefore, this year we have decided to dedicate a permanent area to a Sim.Lab Hub— a corner of the Congress focused on software and hardware simulation— which will remain in place for the full two-day event.
In a scenario where, within just a few days, a professional may need to operate on different platforms—today Bougainvillea, tomorrow Gardenia, the day after tomorrow Lily-of-the-Valley (all fictitious names)—simulation becomes crucial for ensuring operational continuity and safety.
