This intensive three-day clinical ultrasound course introduces clinicians to the use of ultrasound for assessment of liver disease. It will provide hands-on experience of ultrasound, along with the essential accompanying theory sessions.
You'll be taught at London's Royal Free Hospital by experts in clinical ultrasound who will mentor you in recognising normal anatomy and pathological features.
The training will help you develop a more integrated clinical approach to hepatology.
The course aims to introduce the use of ultrasound with three main objectives:
to review the most important topics in hepatology through a different perspective, broadening hepatology physicians knowledge
to propose a rapid and practical approach for assessing patients with liver disease
to introduce the use of ultrasound-based known and emerging techniques which are recognised as essential tools in the assessment of chronic liver disease

About this course

This CPD course is aimed mainly at hepatologists in training and hepatology consultants, from the UK or overseas.
The practical nature of the training means that there are only 20 places, so each participant will have time to gain hands-on experience.
There will be a waiting list once the course is full.

Course programme

You'll learn through a mixture of lectures and practical sessions.

During the first part of the course there will be:

  • lectures on normal abdominal anatomy and its sonographic equivalent, followed by practical sessions in which you'll be taught how to recognise and describe the relative findings
  • the opportunity to gain confidence with the technical aspects of ultrasound during the practical sessions

The second part of the course will be dedicated to lectures on different liver disease pathologies. This will be followed by practical sessions during which you'll be guided by your assigned mentor to familiarise yourself with the different sonographic features of liver disease.

There will be also space for discussion on what hepatology physicians should know about ultrasound-based interventional techniques, as well as the latest advances and their potential applications with projection of pictures and clips.

You'll finish by taking part in an interactive clinical case discussion after which you'll complete a questionnaire to evaluate your knowledge and achievements.
