Minimizing radiation exposure in endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography: a review for medical personnel [PDF]
Fluoroscopy is used frequently during endoscopic procedures, such as endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). However, exposure to radiation is an important health concern, primarily because of the potential increase in the lifetime risk of

Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography [PDF]
Magnetic resonance cholangiopancratography (MRCP) is a radiologic technique that produces images of the pancreaticobiliary tree that are similar in appearance to those obtained by invasive radiographic methods, such as endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP).

Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography [PDF]
Non-invasive imaging techniques such as ultrasound (US) or computed tomography (CT) are widely used for the diagnosis and monitoring of many pancreatic and biliary tract diseases. However, these techniques have limitations, such as the low sensitivity of ultrasound for detecting common duct calculi, which means that the diagnosis of several common ...
