Doctreen Radiology at RSNA 2025: a strategic presence at the heart of global radiology

In December 2025, Doctreen Radiology strengthened its position on the international medical imaging scene by taking part in RSNA 2025 — the world's largest radiology congress, held every year in Chicago. This was not just a brief appearance, but a high point of exchanges, listening and debate around the current challenges of the discipline.

RSNA: an observatory of global trends

Every year, RSNA (Radiological Society of North America) brings together thousands of radiologists, researchers, industry players and decision-makers from around the world. More than a technology showcase, it is a place where the real expectations of the field can be gauged, far from marketing announcements.

For Doctreen Radiology, the objective was clear: to listen, engage in dialogue and understand professionals' concrete needs in order to refine its vision and solutions.

On site, Raphaël Ruiz — CEO of Doctreen Radiology — held in-depth discussions with hospital and private-practice radiologists, academic teams, technology partners and software vendors in the sector. Covering key topics such as report structuring, the integration of artificial intelligence and the protection of clinical reasoning, these exchanges made it possible to compare different practices and organisational contexts.

The main trends observed at RSNA 2025

Among the key lessons from the congress:

• AI is reaching concrete maturity: the question is no longer “do we need AI?” but how to integrate it without sacrificing clinical judgement.
• Report structuring is becoming central: the report is no longer seen as a mere administrative deliverable, but as an essential clinical tool, a decision support and a vehicle for usable data.
• Explainability and usability come first: solutions perceived as “black boxes” arouse distrust and rejection; radiologists expect tools that are clear, controllable and in line with their reasoning.

What this experience confirms for Doctreen Radiology

Taking part in RSNA 2025 confirms the relevance of Doctreen Radiology's positioning: solutions that structure medical reasoning, support the radiologist without constraining them, and recognise the report as a clinical tool in its own right. This approach, founded on decision intelligence and respect for existing practices, addresses challenges shared well beyond Europe's borders.

As the team on site emphasised, the real value lies not in AI itself, but in the way it serves practitioners' day-to-day work — by simplifying each step of the process, improving efficiency and enhancing medical quality.

“RSNA confirmed one essential thing for us: radiologists are not waiting for an AI that decides for them, but for tools that respect and structure their clinical reasoning, without ever constraining it.” — Raphaël Ruiz, CEO of Doctreen Radiology

Looking ahead

The lessons learned at RSNA now inform not only Doctreen Radiology's product strategy, but also its exchanges with users and its upcoming international projects. Discussions will continue at the sector's next major events, reinforcing the ambition to keep advancing radiology practice with tools that are useful, explainable and human-centred.
