19th Asian Society of Cardiovascular Imaging Congress 2026May 21 - 23, 2026 | Grand Copthorne Waterfront Hotel | On-site Event
Siemens Healthineers participated in the 19th Asian Society of Cardiovascular Imaging (ASCI) Congress 2026 in Singapore.
Themed “Cardiovascular Imaging: Uniting Science, Technology and Humanity”, the congress focused on advancing cardiovascular imaging through scientific innovation, interdisciplinary collaboration, and practical approaches to improving patient care. The programme includes three full days of scientific sessions and exclusive pre-congress workshops for hands-on learning.
It brought together doctors, clinicians, researchers, and healthcare professionals from across the region to exchange knowledge, explore emerging technologies, and strengthen best practices in cardiovascular imaging.
Take a look back at highlights from our Pre-Congress Workshop, Breakfast Symposium and Conference Booth!

Pre-Congress Workshop
PCCT & Centargo Cardiovascular Imaging Workshop
Date: Thursday, May 21, 2026
Time: 09:00am - 04:30pm
Venue: The Advanced Surgery Training Centre (ASTC) Seminar Hall, National University Hospital
Explore how Siemens Healthineers’ Dual Source Photon-Counting CT (PCCT) , the next-generation detector technology, delivers ultra-high resolution of up to 3 times, with inherent spectral information in every scan, and reduced radiation dose, transforming diagnostic confidence in complex cardiovascular cases.
- Seamless integration of PCCT with Bayer's Centargo CT injector system for optimized protocols in cardiac imaging.
- Practical demonstrations of workflow improvements, including reduced setup time and standardized/personalized contrast administration.
- Case-based discussions: improved plaque characterization, optimised structural heart and congenital heart disease imaging.
- Live demonstration of both systems with protocol optimization tips for technologists and cardiac imaging specialists.

Prof. Amedeo Chiribiri
Professor of Cardiovascular Imaging Kings College London,
Director of the Cardiovascular MRI Service at Guy’s and St Thomas’ Hospital
Prof Chiribiri’s main clinical and research interest is cardiovascular imaging, with a focus on cardiovascular MRI and quantitative imaging. He has developed several techniques that enable the non-invasive assessment of myocardial blood flow (perfusion) and the non-invasive differential diagnosis between different causes of chest pain. Moreover, Prof Chiribiri is actively involved in the development and validation of novel experimental models to simulate physiological and pathophysiological processes and more recently, he has been pioneering the clinical applications of whole-body low-field scanners in the field of cardiovascular MRI, including the first clinical service for low-field CMR.
