Overview
Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreaticography (MRCP) is highly sensitive and accurate in the diagnosis of choledocholithiasis[1] and biliary abnormalities in the patients of cholangitis.
Ascending cholangitis MRI
Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreaticography (MRCP) is highly sensitive and accurate in the diagnosis of choledocholithiasis[1] and biliary abnormalities in the patients of cholangitis. It is performed in patients with negative ultrasound and CT scan but have a suspicion of acute cholangitis. It is used as a non-invasive tool to localize lesions within the biliary tree. Common MR findings seen in acute cholangitis include increased peri-ductal signal intensity, transient peri-ductal signal difference, abscess, thrombosis and ragged duct[2].
