The chapter provides a comprehensive overview of the evolution and current state of neuroradiology in Sweden from 1990 to 2024, focusing on key developments in diagnostic and interventional techniques such as CT, MRI, and angiography. The Swedish Society of Neuroradiology (SSNR) was established in 1971, building on a rich history of innovation and leading to significant advancements in imaging techniques, neuroradiology and neurointervention at large. The SSNR plays a crucial role in promoting education and research within the field. Swedish neuroradiology has a strong focus on research, international collaborations, and contributes to various professional societies. Despite an increase in certified neuroradiologists and neurointerventionists, the shift from CT to MRI and a dramatic increase in interventions present challenges due to limited specialist availability. Overall, the SSNR continues to advocate for scientific development, education, and collaboration within the field of neuroradiology, reflecting Sweden’s commitment to advancing medical imaging practices.
