OVERVIEW

The Non-Cirrhotic Liver: A Case-Based Review Course is organized by Unilabs Academy and will be held from Jun 29 - Jul 01, 2027.

Description:
This new edition of the Liver Imaging Course introduces an interactive, case-based format designed to immerse participants in the real-world diagnostic process of liver imaging. Structured as a virtual reading-room experience, the course minimizes traditional lectures and mostly focuses on interpreting, discussing, and learning from clinical cases.

Over the span of three intensive half-days, participants will review and discuss a large selection of CT and MRI liver cases under the guidance of Prof. Giuseppe Brancatelli. Each session starts with short lectures, followed by the live presentation of selected cases, during which participants will be actively involved in describing findings, proposing differential diagnoses, and reaching a final conclusion.

After each case discussion, a concise 1–2-slide summary will highlight key diagnostic points, underlying pathology, and relevant imaging criteria.

This course encourages participants to engage actively in the case discussions. Although not mandatory, active involvement is highly recommended to foster a collegial, small-group learning environment. Everyone will be invited to contribute, and participation will be rotated fairly to ensure that all attendees who wish to take part have the opportunity to do so.

Those who prefer not to speak up may interact via the chat — even anonymously — or simply listen to the discussions of other participants.

The course will cover:

Focal liver lesions in the non-cirrhotic liver
Incidental liver lesions
Vascular disorders of the liver
Cystic liver lesions
Fat, calcium, and fibrosis in the liver

Rather than being taught through frontal lectures, these topics will be integrated into case discussions and reinforced through practical imaging examples.

Learning Objectives:

Confidently characterize and manage incidental liver lesions in the non-cirrhotic liver
Identify and differentiate cystic and solid liver lesions with a structured imaging approach
Recognize the key imaging features of vascular disorders of the liver
Understand how fat, fibrosis, and calcification patterns can guide you toward the correct diagnosis

Programme will include:

Interactive case-based learning — explore real-life examples of cystic and solid lesions, incidental findings, and vascular disorders
Hands-on interpretation — read and analyze individual cases in a guided, step-by-step format
Engaging group discussions — share insights and reasoning with peers under expert mentorship
Direct Q&A with the radiologist mentor — get practical answers and tips from an experienced specialist
Comprehensive resources — access all presentation slides, recorded sessions, and supplementary materials
Post-fellowship access — revisit the discussed cases anytime after the course
Personal online dashboard — enjoy seamless access to all materials through the Unilabs Academy platform
CME Certificate
