Description
The Essentials workshop series is designed specifically for Radiologists in Training and non-GI specialised Radiologists seeking a solid foundation in gastrointestinal imaging. Focused on Levels I–II, the series covers all the essential basics you need to know — from appropriate imaging modalities and protocols to interpretation of key imaging findings.
Led by experienced GI radiology fellows, each session offers practical tips & tricks, illustrative case reviews, and concise theoretical insights to enhance your clinical confidence. Whether you're looking to strengthen your day-to-day practice or preparing for the EDGAR diploma, this series provides a valuable learning platform.
This focused Pancreatobiliary course is designed to take you from foundational knowledge to practical confidence. Starting with the basics and building in complexity, each session blends key theory with real cases, covering:
- Imaging modalities and protocols
- Step-by-step interpretation techniques
- Practical tips & tricks
Cases include clinical background, guided walkthroughs, and clear take-home learning points — making this course ideal for radiologists aiming to strengthen their skills in pancreatobiliary imaging in a structured, practical way.
Learning objectives
- To understand the imaging features and diagnostic criteria of acute and chronic pancreatobiliary inflammatory diseases, with emphasis on differentiating inflammatory conditions from neoplastic processes
- To recognise and accurately characterize biliary and pancreatic tumours on CT and MR, including common mimickers, to improve diagnostic confidence and multidisciplinary decision-making
- To apply evidence-based imaging approaches for the assessment of pancreatic cystic lesions, including risk stratification and reporting elements relevant for patient management and follow-up
Target group
Young radiologists, people who wish to prepare for EDGAR (Diploma) or wish to acquire a foundation-level training across abdominal subspecialties
