Comparison of Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography and Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography in Pancreaticobiliary Pathologies

Comparitive Study of Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography with Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography in Biliary And Pancreatic Duct Abnormalities

Aim And Objectives: To recognize the normal appearence of bile duct & pancreatic duct and its variants by MRCP.To compare the accuracy of MRCP as a diagnostic tool in our institution with ERCP in the diagnosis of bile and pancreatic duct diseases, using specificity, sensitivity, positive and negative predictive values. Materials And Methods: Source of data :Patients from Departments of General ...

Cysto-biliary rupture in hepatic hydatid disease: magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography findings.

Fig. 2 Conflict interest statement The authors declare that they have no conflict of interest to the publication of this article. Hepatic hydatid disease (HHD) is a unique parasitic disease that is endemic in many parts of the world [1]. Biliary rupture is one of the most common complications of HHD, which leads to small to large cysto-biliary communications (CBC) [1, 2]. CBC can cause cholangi...

Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography: Summary

Diseases of the pancreas and biliary tree are common in the United States. An estimated 6 per 100,000 people are afflicted with common bile duct stones, representing only a small fraction of those with gallstones. There are approximately 57,400 newly diagnosed cases of malignancy of the pancreas, gallbladder, or extrahepatic biliary tract each year, and the prognosis is usually poor. Pancreatit...

Sensitivity and Specificity of Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography versus Endoscopic Ultrasonography against Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography in Diagnosing Choledocholithiasis: The Indonesian Experience

BACKGROUND/AIMS Biliary stone disease is one of the most common conditions leading to hospitalization. In addition to endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) are required in diagnosing choledocholithiasis. This study aimed to compare the sensitivity and specificity of EUS and MRCP against ERCP...
