Description

This workshop introduces the concept of point-of-care ultrasonography (POCUS) of the liver as an extension of the clinical exam to be performed by hepatology clinicians. Presenters provide a rationale for the use of POCUS, the basics of liver ultrasonography, common applications, and a path to implement POCUS in clinical practice. Participants will also receive hands-on training on performing point-of-care ultrasound examinations of the liver.

This session is supported by in-kind contributions (provision of ultrasound equipment) from GE Healthcare, Mindray, and Siemens Healthineers.
