Multiparametric Ultrasound in Liver Diseases: Practical Applications and Evolving Evidence
Join the upcoming Canon Medical Academy webinar “Multiparametric Ultrasound in Liver Diseases: Practical Applications and Evolving Evidence,” live on October 1 at 7 pm (CEST), to learn more about how multiparametric ultrasound supports hepatology practice and patient care.
Multiparametric ultrasound is emerging as a valuable tool in evaluating chronic liver disease, offering non-invasive insights into fibrosis and steatosis. By combining shear wave elastography and attenuation imaging, clinicians can better quantify and interpret liver changes, supporting diagnostic and treatment decisions in line with current hepatology guidelines.
Designed by physicians for physicians, this webinar will demonstrate how to apply multiparametric ultrasound findings in practice, correlate results with histology and advanced imaging, and clarify decision-making thresholds.

Presentation:Multiparametric Ultrasound in Liver Diseases: Practical Applications and Evolving Evidence
Multiparametric ultrasound has emerged as a powerful, accessible tool in the evaluation of chronic liver diseases. It integrates elastography for fibrosis assessment and attenuation techniques for steatosis quantification.
This presentation explores how to interpret and apply multiparametric ultrasound findings effectively in clinical practice. By correlating ultrasound parameters with advanced imaging, histology, and updated hepatology guidelines, we aim to clarify its role in patient management and research.
Moderator: Prof. Adrian Lim, MD, FRCP, FRCRProf. Adrian Lim trained in Radiology at the Hammersmith and Charing Cross Hospitals, London, from 1997–2002, and obtained a doctorate in the utility of microbubble ultrasound and use of MR spectroscopy. He was appointed a consultant radiologist in the same department in 2003 and simultaneously held an honorary senior lecturer position at Imperial College London. In 2010, he was promoted to Reader in Radiology, adjunct Professor in 2013, and conferred Professor of Practice in 2017.
Prof. Adrian Lim is Head of Ultrasound at Charing Cross Hospital (London). His specialist areas include advancing ultrasound technologies and the use of novel techniques in functionally assessing disease processes, particularly in liver, breast, oncological, and musculoskeletal imaging.
He has published over 150 peer-reviewed articles and book chapters and, in 2024, a textbook on "Liver Ultrasound: from Basics to Advanced Applications."
He is an editor of the European Journal of Ultrasound and Ultrasound International Open Journal and an associate editor of the Clinical Radiology and Ultrasound journals.
He is the immediate past President of the British Medical Ultrasound Society (BMUS) and the current President-elect of the European Federation of Societies in Ultrasound, Medicine and Biology (EFSUMB).
Speaker: Prof. Maxime Ronot, PhDProf. Maxime Ronot is head of the Department of Medical Imaging at Beaujon University Hospital in Clichy and is affiliated with the Université Paris Cité in Paris, France.
Specializing in abdominal imaging, he focuses on liver and pancreas diseases and tumors, interventional abdominal oncology, and abdominal vascular diseases.
He holds memberships in various prominent French and European radiology societies, including the French and European Societies of Radiology and the European Society of Gastrointestinal and Abdominal Radiology (ESGAR). He is a member of the LI-RADS steering committee. In this capacity, he chairs the LI-RADS benign liver lesions group and contributes to the LI-RADS AI and cholangiocarcinoma groups and the CIRSE AI task force.
Prof. Ronot has authored or coauthored over 400 articles and books. Furthermore, he serves as the president of the French national ethics committee for medical imaging research.
Speaker: Dr. Marco Dioguardi Burgio, MD, PhDDr. Marco Dioguardi Burgio is a diagnostic and interventional abdominal radiologist and an academic researcher at the Université Paris Cité in Paris, France. He currently serves as an Associate Professor at the Beaujon University Hospital in Clichy, France.
His research primarily focuses on the multiparametric ultrasound evaluation of diffuse liver disease and the imaging and treatment of primary liver and pancreatic malignancies.
Dr. Dioguardi Burgio is an active member of several leading French and European radiological societies, including the French Society of Radiology, the European Society of Radiology (ESR), and the European Society of Gastrointestinal and Abdominal Radiology (ESGAR).
He has authored or co-authored over 110 scientific publications, the majority of which have appeared in Q1 or Q2 journals.
