Excerpt

Nowadays diagnostic noninvasive approach of the biliary tree for detection of lithiasis is performed very well with ultrasound (US) and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) [1‐4]. In cases where these modalities are inconclusive, more invasive procedures like endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) or percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography (PTC) can reveal the diagnosis and may also lead to therapeutic solutions [5, 6]. ERCP is usually chosen first, and only in the case of contraindication or failure are percutaneous radiological methods advisable [6]. …
