The 15th International Day of Radiology (IDoR 2026) takes place on 8 November, bringing together medical imaging professionals from across the globe in the spirit of appreciation.

Today, we join this community to celebrate this global initiative. IDoR commemorates Wilhelm Röntgen‘s groundbreaking discovery of X-rays in 1895, a milestone that transformed medicine and continues to shape healthcare today.

As healthcare and technology evolve at an unprecedented pace, imaging technologies remain at the forefront of innovation, empowering clinicians with the insights they need to make informed decisions, deliver timely diagnoses, and improve patient outcomes.

At AGFA HealthCare, we are proud to be part of this incredible network, and across our organization, many of our own colleagues bring decades of their own radiology experience, having witnessed and contributed to remarkable advances in imaging technology and clinical practice. Like our customers and clinical partners, they have continually adapted, embraced innovation, and empowered healthcare teams to deliver the highest standards of patient care.

To mark the occasion, we have created a short video featuring perspectives from our executive, clinical, strategy, and technical teams, reflecting on what the radiology community means to us and the impact it has on healthcare around the world.

To everyone working in radiology and medical imaging: thank you for your dedication, expertise, and resilience. Through your knowledge, innovation, and commitment to excellence, you empower better care, better decisions, and better outcomes for patients every day.

Today, we celebrate not only what radiology has achieved, but also the people who continue to push the profession forward.
