title: [Imaging diagnosis, echography and CAT in mechanical jaundice].
abstract: In a review of 70 cases of extra-hepatic cholestasis of different origin, the great diagnostic value of imaging techniques, echography and computed tomography, was demonstrated in distinguishing the type of jaundice, and in defining the cause and site of obstruction.
