Efforts to decarbonise imaging often prioritise high-energy modalities, yet a comprehensive life cycle assessment of adult diagnostic ultrasound in a university hospital shows a different profile. Most greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions were not tied to scanner manufacture or electricity, but to routine supplies and linens used around examinations....Read more

Medical imaging is a growing contributor to healthcare’s environmental footprint, and the energy required to store imaging data is a significant part of that impact. Computed tomography of the chest, abdomen and pelvis (CT-CAP) for baseline staging in endometrial cancer generates large files, especially when post-processed series such as reformats...Read more
