Diagnostic Accuracy of Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography in Patients With Obstructive Jaundice

December 22, 2024 updated by: Demiana Mohsen Soliman, Sohag University

Diagnostic Accuracy of Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography as Compared to Ultrasound and Computed Tomography in Patients With Obstructive Jaundice

Evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) compared with Ultrasound and Computed Tomography (CT) in patients with obstructive jaundice taking findings of ERCP/ PTC and histopathology as gold standard.

Detailed Description

MRCP as a diagnostic role to determine the presence and severity of biliary and pancreatic ductal dilatation. It can also detect the length of the stricture as well as the exact cause and location of the obstructing lesion in comparison to other modalities.

Design Details

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Patients diagnosed with obstructive jaundice
MRCP as a role that is used as a non-invasive diagnostic tool for visualizing the pancreaticobiliary tree without the use of contrast media
Three most important sequences included axial T2 weighted scan from liver to ampullary region followed by T2 weighted 3D FSE sequence acquired in coronal oblique plane using respiratory triggering by tying bellows over abdomen. After this breath hold HASTE sequence is acquired in coronal plane. Maximum intensity projection (MIP) and thick slab images are also used for interpretation. US, CECT and MRCP scans are interpreted by radiologists blinded to other imaging findings
Other Names:
  • Ultrasound
  • Computed tomography
