This is a special episode brought to you in association with Hepatology Knowledge into Practice.

NASH occurs in around 20% of individuals with NAFLD, and puts patients at high risk of poor outcomes including cardiovascular events and hepatocellular carcinoma. With people with type 2 diabetes and obesity at significantly increased risk for developing NAFLD, how can we identify those with NASH?

In this podcast episode, we are joined by Dr Kenneth Cusi to discuss how patients can be risk stratified using non-invasive biomarkers and imaging techniques.

By completing this activity you can qualify for 0.25 CME credits. To claim your credits, you must listen to the podcast and successfully pass the post-module assessment at diabetes.knowledgeintopractice.com, where you can find all past episodes of the podcast as well as other free CME resources.
