Overview
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) cholangiography is a technique used to visualize gallstones in the biliary apparatus. Recently, noninvasive magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) has been used to visualize gallstones that travel outside the gallbladder and into the surrounding biliary ducts and pancreas.
MRI
- With or without contrast material, MRI is able to show the bile in the bile ducts from many different angles and can be as good a modality for detecting stones in the bile ducts as ultrasound imaging, excluding the much more interventional transhepatic cholangiogram.[1]
- Problems with MRI include limited availability in certain areas, limited cholangiographic skills and experience, and relatively high costs.
Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreaticogram (MRCP)
- Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) is an imaging technique that uses magnetic resonance imaging to visualize the biliary and pancreatic ducts in a non-invasive manner.[2][3][4]
- This procedure can help determine if gallstones are lodged in any of the ducts surrounding the gallbladder.
