Description
Accurate liver diagnosis demands confident imaging interpretation, selective biopsy use, and smart application of specialized tests. This case-based session delivers practical skills in 3 areas: (1) radiology for nonradiologists; (2) biopsy in the era of noninvasive tests; and (3) uncommon diagnostics. Attendees gain actionable checklists, algorithms, and strategies for immediate clinical application. Designed for hepatology clinicians and multidisciplinary teams, this session emphasizes real-world decision-making and interactive questions and answers.
