It is important to recognize the distribution of the bile ducts in the caudate lobe of the liver for the hepato-biliary surgery. To map the spatial relationship between the bile ducts and the liver parenchyma under physiological conditions, we performed
Cholecystoenteric fistulas are often not diagnosed preoperatively and delineation of fistula can have an influence on surgical planning. We report a case of cholecystocolonic fistula diagnosed preoperatively using CT-i.v. cholangiography and review the published reports.
To determine the accuracy of computed tomographic intravenous cholangiography (CT-IVC) for detection of choledocholithiasis. Sixty-five patients undergoing endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERC) underwent CT-IVC prior to ERC, using a single detector helical CT following intravenous infusion of 100 ml iotroxate. Patients

To evaluate whether virtual non-enhanced imaging (VNI) is effective to replace true non-enhanced imaging (TNI) applying iodine removal in intravenous dual-energy CT-cholangiography. From April 2009 until February 2010, fifteen potential donors for living-related liver transplantation (mean age 37.6±10.8 years) were
