Noninvasive Imaging of Liver Disease by MRI and Photoacoustic Ultrasound
to
Join us on Wednesday November 5th for a LIVE webinar with Dr. Chris Albanese, Professor of Oncology and Radiology and Olga Rodriguez M.D., Ph.D., Associate Professor from Georgetown University Medical Center.
Discussed in this webinar:
- Liver diseases like steatosis and fibrosis are usually diagnosed with needle biopsy, which is invasive. Current imaging methods can’t reliably show the different stages of disease
- Ultrasound Photoacoustic Imaging (US-PAI) is a new, non-invasive approach that captures tissue structure and oxygen changes
- How US-PAI can directly detect key liver disease markers like collagen, fat, and fibrosis
- Results, confirmed with MRI, suggest US-PAI could become a powerful tool for tracking liver disease without biopsy
- Q&A
