| Ep4 How Artificial Intelligence Is Reshaping Radiology and Cancer Screening | 21 May 2026 | 00:30:03 | |
Artificial intelligence has the potential to transform healthcare from a reactive system focused on treatment to a proactive model centred on prediction, prevention and earlier intervention. But alongside the opportunities come critical questions around trust, governance, workforce readiness and how clinicians integrate AI safely and effectively into patient care. A/Prof Helen Frazer and Dr Martin Gunn discuss the rapidly evolving role of AI across clinical radiology and radiation oncology. A/Prof Frazer shares groundbreaking research using AI to predict future breast cancer risk and personalise screening pathways. Dr Gunn explores how AI is improving imaging workflows, reporting, triage and clinical decision-making. Together, they examine where AI is genuinely adding value today, where caution is still required, and what the future may hold for clinicians and patients. RANZCR AI Conference – Intelligence26 A/Prof Helen Frazer and Dr Martin Gunn will both be speaking at Intelligence26, RANZCR’s AI Conference focused on AI and the future of practice: The Scan is proudly brought to you by the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Radiologists.

| Ep3: Radiology Across Borders: Advancing Radiology Education and Improving Health Outcomes in Emerging Nations | 14 Apr 2026 | 00:34:05 | |
Reliable medical imaging and diagnostics are often taken for granted. Yet in many parts of the world, consistent access to radiology services remains out of reach. Radiology Across Borders (RAB) is a global charity working to change this reality by strengthening radiology capability through education, training and in‑country support, helping to improve health outcomes in emerging nations. RAB co‑founder A/Prof Suresh de Silva and Director Dr Salman Ansari share the organisation’s origin story, the scope of its work today, and the tangible impact it is making on the ground. They also discuss the importance of RAB’s partnership with the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Radiologists (RANZCR), which is helping to expand reach, strengthen programs, and build sustainable radiology capability where it is needed most.
