title: [Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography and a problem in diagnosis of hepatopancreatoduodenal diseases].
abstract: Based on the findings of 54 magnetic resonance studies, the authors used 19 of them authors to study the types of normalcy. A role of the new noninvasive technique magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCPG) in the diagnosis of hepatopancreatoduodenal diseases is assessed. The potentialities of MRCPG in the detection of most common diseases and malformations of the biliary system are demonstrated. Comparative studies of MRCPG and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCPG) were conducted in 18 cases. The paper shows a methodological approach to MRCPG and analyzes the studies by describing the MR semiotics of major diseases. Emphasis is laid on how it is important to combine routine MRI and MRCPG in certain diagnostic situations. The authors consider that MRCPG is able to replace X-ray endoscopic studies and primarily ERCPG in diagnostic terms, by reserving their therapeutical functions for itself. MRCPG has great potentialities that, require further investigations and analysis.
