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.

People with type 2 diabetes or obesity are at higher risk of developing non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) including non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Some estimates report a prevalence of NAFLD of 60% in people with type 2 diabetes, rising to 78% in those who also have obesity. So what’s behind this link?
In this podcast episode, Professor Giulio Marchesini explores the relationships between NAFLD, type 2 diabetes and obesity and offers advice for healthcare professionals caring for people with one or more of these conditions.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a spectrum of liver disease, of which an advanced form is non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). But how does this condition develop, and why is it associated with poor outcomes? In this podcast episode, Professor Zobair Younossi discusses the latest evidence on the pathogenesis and pathophysiology of NASH, and how it can lead to poor outcomes.
