UKIO 2026 will take place in Liverpool on 8-10 June with the theme Putting humanity at the centre of healthcare: In the age of the machine which will focus on how we ensure – as technology rapidly transforms the face of healthcare – we continue to place the human experience at the heart of it – both patients and the teams who deliver diagnosis, treatment, and care.
As the UK’s largest imaging and oncology event, UKIO continues to be the place to come for cutting-edge, practice-based content for a multidisciplinary audience, to join up with like-minded professionals, to gain up to three days of CPD, and to visit a large professional exhibition of the latest state-of-the-art equipment, services and technology.
It will feature:
- A truly multidisciplinary programme put together by an expert working party – for everyone working in diagnostic imaging, oncology and radiological sciences.
- Exciting plenary sessions.
- Dedicated sessions for trainees and students.
- Lots of hands-on and case-based workshops.
- Curated sessions on innovation, technology and service delivery in collaboration with industry partners and further added value content from the Education on the Stands programme.
- Research at the heart – with proffered papers sessions, ePosters, the return of the Research hub and the Pitch your Project initiative.
And new developments for 2026 will include:
- A dedicated stream throughout the congress for radiologists, providing all the updates you’ll need for on call and delivering DGH radiology.
- A new look stream for radiology trainees.
- Further development of the radiotherapy hub in the exhibition.
