Magnetic resonance cholangiographic assessment of a delayed radiation-induced bile duct stricture.
Radiation-induced bile duct strictures are rare since bile ducts are considered to be resistant in radiation injury. We report a case of bile duct stenosis where evidence is presented that bile duct stricture was the result of radiation injury and which illustrates the major contribution of magnetic res-onance cholangiography in biliary tract disease evaluation.
