Image of the Day 6: Cholangiogram


In today's Image of the Day, i just want to share with readers the image of the cholangiogram in a patient with post removal of gallbladder. In the image, it is appear that there's a present of hypodense lesion at the common hepatic duct in which it was initially thought to be stone. Eventually it was actually an air formed during the injection of the contrast and disappear later. Try to compare the cholangiogram image with the schematic illustration of the biliary tree for further understanding. The reason why i post this image is simply because I'm having a problem in remembering this very simple biliary tree. I hope someone with similar problem can be benefited from this images as well.
