The Commission together with the European Society of Radiology and EUCAIM is organising an event exploring how the European Cancer Imaging Initiative harnesses health data and Artificial Intelligence to advance the fight against cancer.
Two years after the launch of the European Cancer Imaging Initiative, Member States and stakeholders from research, innovation and healthcare organisations, will explore perspectives for the Initiative’s contribution to advancing trustworthy AI tools for precision oncology and its role in the future European Health Data Space.
At the heart of this Initiative is the Cancer Image Europe Infrastructure under development by the EUCAIM project. By 2026, the infrastructure will provide researchers, innovators and clinicians with secure access to extensive cancer image datasets, unlocking the potential for AI tools to detect cancer sooner and faster, and treat the patients more accurately.
At the event, EUCAIM will share major milestones, introduce new project partners, and discuss progress towards the establishment of an EUCAIM EDIC (European Digital Infrastructure Consortium).
Target audience: This event aims to bring together key figures in the digital transformation of healthcare across EU Member States, including representatives from health ministries, digital health agencies, hospitals, and cancer research institutes. The event also welcomes researchers and SMEs working with imaging data to gain and provide valuable insights on AI innovation in cancer diagnostics and treatment.

The Miricle project, ‘Mine Risk Clearance for Europe’, obtained funding under the European Defence Industrial Development programme call ‘Underwater control contributing to resilience at sea’. The main objective of the project was to achieve a European and sovereign capacity in future mine warfare and create a path for the next generation ‘made in Europe’ countermeasure solutions. In order to realise this objective, Miricle addressed various stages: studies, design, prototyping and testing. These stages inter alia included the successful testing of an XL Unmanned Underwater Vehicle, a protototyped mine disposal system and multiple innovative systems to detect buried mines. Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), was one of the five Belgian partners in the consortium. Within the project, VLIZ was able to forward its research on the acoustic imaging of the seabed to spatially map and visualize buried structures and objects - in this case buried mines - in the highest possible detail. VLIZ also led the work on ‘Port and Offshore Testing’, building on the expertise of the institute in the field of marine operations and technology.
