Investigation of the accuracy of magnetic resonance cholangiography and multi-slice spiral computed tomography in the diagnosis of cholangiocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a common malignant biliary tract tumor in clinical practice. The detection rate of multi-slice spiral computed tomography (MSCT) with a diameter of 10 mm is low, and it is easy to be misdiagnosed and missed. In addition, patients who are allergic to iodized contrast media are not eligible for MSCT screening. However, magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) is non-invasive, does not require contrast injection, scans quickly, and is simple to perform. MRCP has good development rate and the ability to recognize human pancreas and biliary tract. MRCP is also non-invasive, does not require contrast injection, has fast scanning speed, and is easy to operate. In addition, MRCP has a good development rate and the ability to recognize human
