The BIR/DMCI "Hands-On" training series: Hepatobiliary imaging

20th April 2017  08:30 AM - 05:30 PM (GMT+01:00) Europe/London

This “Hands-On” event in hepatobiliary imaging is designed to familiarise and guide delegates through a range of hepatobiliary disorders. In six sessions delegates will be introduced not only to the more routine presentations of hepatobiliary disease but also the more atypical imaging signs of rare and complex disorders.

Delegates will have the opportunity to review the imaging of patients with hepatic and biliary disorders; imaging findings will be considered with the clinical profile to establish a diagnosis and, wherever possible, to decide on the correct management plan.


The specific topics to be covered are:
 

  • Diffuse liver diseases
  • Benign focal liver lesions
  • Malignant liver tumours
  • Biliary disorders
  • Pancreatic disorders

Feedback from the first “Hands-on” training course:

"Excellent course. Large volume of interesting cases all with good learning points."

"The idea is perfect - at the moment “hands-on” courses are the only way of learning that I am interested in. Short introductory lectures were necessary and well designed. Provided self-assessment booklets - brilliant!"

"Tremendous learning experience."
