Join us for an intensive two-day workshop tailored for radiologists and radiology trainees specializing in the imaging and management of abdominal emergencies.

This workshop will provide in-depth coverage of the latest European Society of Gastrointestinal and Abdominal Radiology (ESGAR) guidelines, best practices for contrast media (CM) injection protocols, and strategies for interpreting complex emergency cases.

Key topics include acute pancreatitis, urogenital emergencies, small bowel obstruction and bowel perforation, as well as blunt abdominal trauma and acute mesenteric ischemia. Real-world case studies will enhance your practical knowledge, while sessions on chest and bone emergencies will broaden your expertise beyond the GI/GU scope. A highlight of the workshop is the interactive case discussion on day two, offering a fun yet challenging opportunity to engage directly with leading experts.

The program will conclude with a keynote lecture on the transformative impact of AI on emergency radiology management.

This workshop is an invaluable opportunity for professionals seeking to refine their skills in the fast-paced environment of abdominal emergency imaging. Don’t miss this chance to learn from top experts and participate in dynamic, case-based discussions!
