Three-dimensional imaging identified the accessory bile duct in a patient with cholangiocarcinoma [PDF]
, 2014 The development of diagnostic imaging technology, such as multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP), has made it possible to obtain detailed images of the bile duct. Recent reports have indicated that
