-On CT scan, cholangiocarcinoma is characterized by homogenously low in attenuation and demonstrate heterogenous minor peripheral enhancement with gradual enhancement centrally. Capsular retraction may be observed. [[Bile ducts]] distal to the mass are typically dilated.

-*The rate and extent of enhancement depends on the degree of central fibrosis.
-*Capsular retraction may be observed.
-*Bile ducts distal to the mass are typically dilated.
-*Narrowing of the portal veins or hepatic veins is observed.
-*Lobar or segmental hepatic atrophy is usually associated with vascular invasion.
-'''Periductal infiltrating''' intra-hepatic tumors appear as regions of thickening of the periductal parenchyma with altered caliber of the involved duct (narrowed or dilated). These are most common at the hepatic hilum. There is usually some distal dilatation of the biliary tree.
+OR
-'''Intraductal cholangiocarcinomas''' are characterized by alterations in duct caliber, usually ductectasia with or without a visible mass. If a polypoid mass is observed, it is hypoattenuating on pre-contrast imaging, and demonstrates enhancement.
