Science. 🍻 Ultrasound. 🤯
Honestly, if that’s not a perfect pub combo, I don’t know what is.

Last week A/Prof Jodie Avery took IMAGENDO out of the lab and into Science in the Pub — breaking down how advanced imaging, AI and real-world ultrasound data are coming together to change the way we detect and teach endometriosis.

No jargon. No ivory towers. Just smart science, good questions, and a room full of people genuinely curious about how imaging can do better for patients.

Proud to see IMAGENDO shared in spaces like this — where research meets reality (and occasionally a pint).

👏 to Jodie for making complex science clear, accessible, and actually interesting.

We’re seeking South Australian clinicians (gynaecologists, GPs, allied health professionals, nurses, radiologists, sonographers, etc) who support young people (aged 14-15 years) with pelvic pain to participate in a one-hour workshop in 2026 on the use of transvaginal ultrasound for diagnosing endometriosis.

Your clinical insights are vital to shaping evidence-based, youth-centered diagnostic pathways.

Endo research update

Last month marked an important step forward for women’s health, with ultrasound for complex gynaecological conditions - such as endometriosis - now added to the Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS) in Australia.
But how can we overcome the current shortage of sonographers with the specialised skillset required to perform these complex scans and truly improve access?
AIMEE (AI Mentor for Endometriosis Ultrasound Education) might be the answer. She is an innovative AI-powered app designed to help sonographers learn to identify and interpret endometriosis on ultrasound images.
Two of our endo researchers, Dr Jodie Avery (left) and PhD candidate and Specialist Sonographer Alison Deslandes (right), are introducing AIMEE. It's a global collaboration, born and raised right here in Adelaide.

👋Meet AIMEE - the AI Mentor for Endometriosis Ultrasound Education.

AIMEE’s ambition is to help close the shortage of sonographers with the specialised skillset required to perform complex scans for endometriois. The e-learning app for sonographers, enhanced by real-time AI feedback, provides immediate guidance to help users refine technique, improve accuracy, and build diagnostic confidence when scanning for endometriosis.

Ultrsound for complex gynaecological conditions - such as endometriosis - was added to the Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS) in Australia earlier this month in a bid to increase accessibilty and more timely diagnosis.

Based on our commitment to accelerate research translation and improve clinical practice, Robinson Research Institute provided funding in 2024 and 2025 to support the development of AIMEE. More 👉 https://buff.ly/QfjLnVj
