AGFA HealthCare & Konimagem continue the energy of “next generation” EI in Brazil – bringing cutting-edge innovations to JPR 2025

Published On: April 29th, 2025|Categories: Events & Exhibitions, Radiology|

The ambition of Radiology practice is peaking to unprecedented levels – with a high expectation for intuitive solutions to support healthcare providers and clinicians. International demand for medical imaging is ever-growing, and with technology having traditionally focused on throughput and outcomes, superior levels of autonomy and clinical intuition have now been identified as essential requirements to bring comfort to radiologists and their hospital colleagues. There’s clear evidence that shows that high-performing, inter-connected and durable solutions are now an integral part of a Radiologist’s remit – forming vital components of the clinical toolbox needed to reach and maintain a high-quality and frustration-free work-life balance. At JPR 2025, AGFA HealthCare and its strategic partner Konimagem will show the local community how Enterprise Imaging can achieve just that.

Celebrating Friendship and Tradition, and a Life in Balance with Enterprise Imaging

Jornada Paulista de Radiologia (JPR) 2025 will take place from 1-4 May 2025 at the Transamerica Expo Center in São Paulo, and will host a programme of 750 scientific works, 900 speakers, 40 courses, 100 exhibitors, and is expected to attract around 20,000 attendees over four days. This year, it celebrates a theme of “friendship and tradition in radiology” – a clear focus on clinician well-being and rooted values. Empowering this spirit, AGFA HealthCare’s “Grow, Work, Life — In Balance” ethos also commits to providing solutions – the Enterprise Imaging Platform – to not only enhance radiologist’s performance, but also help them to thrive professionally with uncompromised wellbeing.
