Overview
Key facts

University College London (UCL)'s International Hepatology Ultrasound Course 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
Programme Structure
Courses include:
- 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
