🩷 Imagine a breast scan with no compression—and just 7 seconds per breast. Sound impossible?

At the latest ASMIRT/NZIMRT 2025 conference, experts introduced Cone Beam Breast CT (CBBCT):

✨ A patient self-positions while lying comfortably—no compression paddle needed
✨ A scan takes only 7 seconds per breast, with no physical contact from the radiographer
✨ Produces fully 3D images with higher resolution than MRI, capturing the entire breast
✨ Especially beneficial for women with dense breast tissue or implants

This breakthrough is not just about technology—it’s about patient comfort, precision, and compassionate care. It could reshape breast cancer screening and diagnostics.

Marilyn Zelesco spoke to journalist Marie McInerney on her more than 30 years in sonography. Marilyn says creating ultrasound protocols for NASA astronauts is one of her career highlights.

Lead Sonographer at the Western Australia Department of Health, Marilyn Zelesco spoke about developing instructions so that astronauts could conduct ultrasound scans of each other and beam them back to Earth for analysis. This is particularly useful because astronauts are at risk of large blunt force injury and other injuries and illnesses when in space. At the time, NASA was concerned that if an astronaut had a head injury, they would have no way of knowing whether the injury was getting worse.

Marilyn is the 2025 recipient of the ASMIRT Board Award for her support of the Society and extensive contributions to the profession.

Croakey Health Media reported on CBBCT and Marilyn Zelesco's achievements in ''From outer space to the Antarctic and beyond – medical radiation sciences are having impact''.
