Overview

X-Ray images of cholangitis are known as cholangiograms.^[1]
Gallstones are visible as nonopacified areas in the contour of the duct.^[2]
X-rays are taken to get a visual impression of the biliary system once the endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) has been conducted, and dye has been injected into the bile duct.^[1]^[3]
