Mastering Pancreatic Ultrasound: Practical Strategies, Technological Advances and Clinical Impact

Ultrasound assessment of the pancreas remains one of the most technically demanding abdominal examinations due to anatomical location, overlying bowel gas and variable body habitus. However, recent advances in transducer design, image processing and multiparametric applications have significantly improved diagnostic capability and consistency.
This workshop focuses on practical scanning strategies, optimized protocols, and reliable anatomical windows that help overcome common limitations in routine clinical practice. Real case examples will demonstrate how advanced technologies—such as harmonic imaging, enhanced processing, and shear wave elastography—can enhance lesion detection and characterization, supporting differential diagnosis in conditions such as cystic lesions, chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic tumors.
Participants will gain a comprehensive and clinically oriented approach to pancreatic ultrasound, combining technique, technology and interpretation to achieve more robust and reproducible results in everyday scanning.

Course Information

At the end of this lecture, delegates will:

  • Apply optimized scanning techniques and standardized protocols to improve visualization of pancreatic anatomy, including strategies to overcome difficult acoustic windows.
  • Understand how advanced ultrasound technologies—including harmonic imaging, enhanced processing and shear wave elastography—contribute to improved detection and characterization of pancreatic pathology.
  • Recognize practical troubleshooting tips for common challenges such as bowel gas, obesity and anatomical variability.
  • Appreciate the clinical potential of multiparametric ultrasound, including elastography, for differential diagnosis and follow-up of pancreatic disease.

What do our delegates say about our training?

Hear from healthcare professionals like you who have taken our courses

I think it's great to have the Canon Medical Academy here at ECR where we can interact with images, can look at examples of images that are current or what is coming in the near future. And while interacting with experts that are used to working with Canon technologies to create and acquire these images and what they mean and what is coming.

Workshop Lecturer,

The Netherlands

This is the best hub to meet the experts, to learn from those who are writing the papers, who are writing the guidelines, who are bringing the best practices. And to learn it on the equipment where you are used to working and you want to improve your performance back home.

Workshop Lecturer,

Latvia

I was thoroughly impressed by how well-structured and organised the course was. The speakers were exceptional - knowledgeable, engaging, and able to explain concepts in a way that kept the session both enjoyable and informative. Overall, this was an outstanding learning experience. Would highly recommend this course to anyone.

Workshop Delegate,

United Kingdom

Really detailed and informative course at an appropriate level of detail. This will really help my scanning technique!

On-demand Delegate,

United Kingdom

The "Canon Medical Real World Applications of AI" course provides an excellent bridge between theoretical technology and daily clinical practice. What I found most valuable was the focus on how AI actually enhances workflow efficiency and diagnostic precision rather than just discussing the algorithms. It is a must-watch for healthcare professionals looking to understand the tangible impact of AI
