Brief Summary

In the era of diagnostic imaging advances, Bile Duct Dilatation becomes a common incidental finding in patients present with either gastrointestinal symptoms or undergone the imaging study for any other complaints. Endoscopic ultrasound enables high resolution views of the biliary system, so it can help detection of different pathologies which cause bile duct dilatation and difficult to be detected by other imaging studies.

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:
